WHY THE **** DO WE NOT STEAL BASES ANYMORE?

Teams are doing a much better job of defending it. Aoki only gave him like two pitches to go anyway. But Petit was mixing up his times. He held the ball forever before throwing the pitch that was the double play ball. Dyson just didn't get a read. Both of the last two series... the pitchers are really mixing up their hold times and getting it to the plate quickly.
