PESKY'S 31-GAME HITTING STREAK SNAPPED BY INDIANS
The
1942 MLB Season's previous highs for longest hitting streaks were by the
Los Angeles Browns'
Chet Laabs & the
St. Louis Cardinals'
Stan Musial at 21 games straight with a hit.
Pesky is batting .421 during the last 2 months with 14 doubles & 26 RBI, while he appears to be the frontrunner for the
A.L. Rookie of the Year Award.
