CS%: The percentage of stolen-base attempts stopped by the defense. Compare catchers and check attempt totals.

Understanding Caught Stealing Percentage

The percentage of stolen-base attempts stopped by the defense. Compare catchers and check attempt totals.

Formula: 100 × CS ÷ (SB + CS)

Read rates alongside playing time. A small sample can produce an extreme result, and a missing value is different from zero.

Season rankings use regular-season records. A player has one combined row across teams; the team label identifies the associated team, not a separate team stint.
