Hey guy's quick question. I am 4 1/2 years into my RTTS campaign
and I lead the league in stolen bases but I have never been able to steal home. Is it even possible in a video game and have any of you all done it?

I also lead the league in stolen bases (RTTS) but I have never been able to do it.

I think it counts if you started to steal home while the pitchers pitches the ball to home, and you made it home with a passed ball by the catcher.

Yep.

Well, take a look at the number of times someone has stolen home in real life. How many times did Rickey Henderson do it? It's not very easy to do. You need to have a guy who is VERY fast, and you also need a pitcher who is pitching from the full windup and has a slow pitching delivery. So in that regards, it is kind of realistic that stealing home is not easy to do.

Or the pitcher isn't paying attention

In the carribean world series this year freddy guzman for the dominican team stole home w/ a runner on first and a pickoff to first base.
Maybe with the new pickoff system this year you can read the pitcher and take off like he did.
