Las Vegas A’s stadium update 🏗️⚾ The roof structure is really starting to take shape now. Crews are working high on the steel, more framing is filling in beneath the arches, and heavy equipment is still digging away at ground level. This thing looks different almost every time I drive by. Vegas is building. 👀 #LasVegas #Athletics #MLB #VegasConstruction

Answer - Paul Molitor with a 39 game hit streak in 1987. Here is a list of the all-time hit streak leaders. I love that Dan Uggla is on this list :) mlb.com/news/longest-hitting…

Longest hitting streaks in MLB history

Since 1941, Joe DiMaggio has stood alone in Major League history, having strung together his iconic 56-game hitting streak. Below is a list of every player to hit in at least 30 consecutive games....

Does anyone else remember this t-shirt? They were in short supply at the mall (no internet in 1988) so if you could get your hands on one you were the coolest kid in school!

Shohei was 1 steal and six homers from the 60-60 Club, too. An all-time season.

When I created the 40/40 club 38 years ago I never thought I'd see the day that ballplayers like Shohei Ohtani would reach the 50/50... its awesome.

I appreciate how the OP clarified “in separate seasons.” Imagine leading both in the same season! That’s HOF shit.

Pete Alonso can do something no one in baseball history has ever accomplished. He could become the first player to led both the American League and National League in RBIs in separate seasons. He led the NL in 2022 with 131 RBIs. He is currently 9 RBIs ahead of Yordan Alvarez for the AL lead.
