Historical standings error

If anyone is collecting data errors, I found one:
1953 Dodgers are listed as 105-49 .677, Pythag 100-55
they actually went 105-49 .682, Pythag 99-55.

Call me a pedantic baseball fan, but it would be redundant.

And shouldn't win percentage be auto-calculated anyway?

(As the Dodgers tied a game, and the in-game stats are consistent with counting ties as losses, this could be a common problem shared by all teams with ties.)
