A look at the data
Thank you to a reader for discovering that I made a math error here. I inadvertently doubled the stolen base value twice: it should be 0.90, not 1.80.
I've fixed this in my spreadsheet, which now correctly shows that National Pastime stolen bases are quite accurate. Apologies for the mistake!
