to tell you the truth...I don't think the numbers are all that outta whack...first of all...offense back then was a running game with lotsa singles...if you look at the individual stats for players then...everybody pretty much stole bases.....

as far as frequency thrown out...maybe a little high...but I bet its not too far off..

as mjj55409 pointed out above...the first CS data is barely above 50% success...it just looks wierd to us being so used to the modern game where stolen base pct's are much better.
