Oops, looks like I jinxed Ichiro Suzuki--he got caught stealing yesterday to end his AL record of 45 consecutive SB's without being caught.
Also, I came across Carlos Beltran's amazing career stolen base percentage: so far he's stolen 233 bases and been caught only 34 times, for a percentage of 87.3, better than Tim Raines' tops of 84.7% among the Top 100 in career SB's (340+). Beltran stole 13 of 13 in 2000, 31 of 32 in 2001, 41 of 45 in 2003 and 42 of 45 in 2004, including 28 of 28 after being traded to Houston.
Random compilation of stats and stats observations a bit outside the norm, by a compulsive stats nut (I can't help myself! My wife might say "Statslave" is a more apt title!)
