Here are a couple of links that might be helpful to keep the baserunners honest during live games.

I do my best to keep you honest and have had success at picking some guys off but in the end, you're stealing because we don't have anyone who can sit guys down from the catcher position, especially at the speed that most of us pitch. It's really tough, the footwork, the quick release, the distance. Sorry guys who catch but I know what you go through...used to do it in high school and early college...but alas the knees can no longer take it.
