The longest hitting-streak in MLB belongs to Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus.
The veteran infielder tripled off the right-centerfield wall in the first inning off Orioles starter Yefry Ramirez to push the streak to 16 games. That’s the longest active streak in the majors this season and ties his career high. This is the third time he’s had a hitting streak of this length in his career.
If Andrus can get a hit in each of Texas’ games against Seattle to start next week he’ll tie Cleveland’s Michael Brantley for the longest streak in the American League this season.
