Note that the slugging percentage and OPS do not match what's in the Batting Register for the 2027 season.

Here's the player page for a different player. Note the .515 career major league slugging percentage--when he never had a single season that high.

Slugging pct is evidently being calculated as (hits + 2b x 2 + 3b x 3 + HR x 4) /AB instead of (hits + 2b + 3b x 2 + HR x 3) /AB, as it should be.

Seems that the slugging percentage calculation might be an issue. Does anyone know if this has been addressed? If so, is the fiz retroactive to my prior seasons?
