Chuck,

I don't know the exact reason, but in my opinion it is because there is a greater chance that a runner is going to try to steal second than try to steal home. Usually teams don't even try to hold a runner on at third like they do at first, so the fake pick to first would have a greater impact on the runner than the fake pick to a runner at third.
