You've just ran up against SOM online's official Gordian Knot...and you still haven't encountered the maddening attempts to steal home yet. They are just the travails that come with the territory of setting your Base Stealing settings at Aggressive and (definitely) Very Aggressive. Aggressive and very aggressive base stealers do at times attempt to steal third or even home, as Harper did when he humiliated Hamels. So, HAL will--in its attempts to replicate that reality--have your runners attempt to steal third or home at inopportune times.
The best remedy for this is to apply "do not steal" to all but your best base stealers when using aggressive or very aggressive (which I rarely use) and/or mostly stick to the "Normal" setting while having your good base stealers "set on steal more." Your complaint, by the way, is the most prevalent in the forum, as many share your frustrations.
