Did they "fix" 3B Steals?

I've noticed in the last couple of days that I haven't been able to steal third against the CPU. So I purposely got Joe Morgan on 2nd base (at the Giants) and stole against McGee on an off-speed pitch. Casali had the ball to third before Morgan was 3/4 of the way there.
It used to be easy to have Morgan or anyone with 90+ speed take third.
Has anyone else noticed this?
-
I'm so traumatized from getting picked off 2nd by perfect throws, every time by any pitcher that I don't even try anymore
-
I can't even steal second so...
-
The steal glitch in 2020 was the most enjoyable offline gameplay experience for me. I would honestly love it if it made a comeback lol
-
I've noticed more of my base stealers getting bad jumps of late. 99 stealing and they're standing there until the pitcher is halfway done with the delivery...ridiculous.
-
Base running in general is really bad. Twice today Gold Kenny lofton was thrown out tagging up. Once on a flyball to deep right field where silver Shaun green hit the cutoff man who threw a strike to 3rd. I’m sorry there is no way that happens
-
Rickey Henderson gets thrown out at second on off speed pitches for me all the time.

This drives me up the wall. Meanwhile, you get throws to first and pitchouts from the CPU with a 60 speed, 40 steal guy on.
I’m general, base stealing and running is so messed up. Almost impossible to steal on CPU. Throws from deep center almost nabbing 80 speed guys at the plate on sac flies.

I been saying since day 1 with this game. Theres a huge discrepancy between AI baserunner speed and player speed, as well as AI fielder speed and player fielder speed. I regularly hit balls in the gap that should be easy doubles...hell, they should be triples for guys like Acuna and Trout, and i can barely get to second before the 72 speed fielder runs it down and fires a 110 mph missile directly to the second basemen. Meanwhile, AI hits what should be a bloop single with a 42 speed guy and they're rounding 2nd by the time i get to it.
-
I can still steal 2nd and 3rd no problem. 8/10 at second and 7/10 at 3rd
-
Never had 99/99 Lofton ever get thrown own stealing. Must be something y'all do wrong.
-
Apparently there's a lot of people here who have no idea how or when to steal.

If you can't steal with a 99/99 then you just don't know how to steal. That much is obvious. I steal with my 75/53 center fielder all the time. You just have to pay attention to who's behind the dish and what kind of pitch you think is coming. You can't do it just any random time you feel like it
