There isn’t a hotter hitter in baseball than Xander Bogaerts. This is more than a mere hot streak, as the shortstop for the Boston Red Sox is entering some historical territory.
An eight-game hitting streak isn’t typically something to get overly excited about but this is an exception. What makes this stretch from Bogaerts special is that the streak has been loaded with run production.
Bogaerts has collected at least one hit, run, and RBI in each of his last eight games. Only Ted Williams has produced a longer such streak in franchise history.
