caught stealing real-life/import stats are off?

I was doing some historical testing (started with 1938 and am now in mid-40's) and I happened to notice that real life caught-stealing totals were off for some players:

Code:
		ACTUAL		OOTP "REAL LIFE"
PLAYER		SB/CS		SB/CS
Lee Handley	68/54		68/13
Pete Reiser	87/39		87/14
Bobby Adams	67/43		67/35
Pee Wee Reese	232/99		232/64
George Myatt	72/29		72/23
Bert Haas	51/33		51/9
I'll note that for many players, their SB/CS totals - RL vs OOTP - were accurate. I'll also note that for the examples listed above, all of their other stats matched (RL vs OOTP).

Anybody seen anything like this before? I'm pretty sure it's not just a cosmetic thing. Reiser, Adams & Haas were my National League SB leaders for 1946, with 61, 53, and 35 steals, when IRL they swiped 34, 16, and 22.
