It is now a total of 14 runs over nine games, the worst such offensive spell for Arizona in more than sixteen years. We mentioned the predecessor in yesterday’s preview about the most pitiful hitting streaks in team history, and that is now the only set of games which have seen this or a lower total. It reached its nadir from June 22-30th in 2003, when the D-backs managed only 11 runs over nine games, managing no more than two runs in any of those contests. No team in the National League has had a longer streak than that of two or fewer tallies per game for more than forty years.
Preview, #151: 9/16 vs. Marlins
