Whipped on the basepaths

Unlike many, I am not concerned with the bullpen. However, our lack success on the basepaths has me worried. It almost appears teams steal at will against us but lately when our guys attempt a steal, they are nearly always thrown out. The case in point was last night. The Sox had the momentum after Pablo singled after the home run, but lost it getting thrown out stealing. Then, Betancourt's steal in the 11th led to their winning run.

 

I can accept losing a game on the basepaths, but it appears somewhat of a chronic problem now. Even Pods has been caught the last three times. Would it help putting Tim back as first base coach?
