If I’m not mistaken, this could be one of the longest winning streaks in the history of baseball. Clearly, the Boston Red Sox are having a season of historic proportions.

Ellsbury stole home. I have not seen that since Tommy Harper do that since 1973. The game was on TV. Harper stole 2nd, than 3rd, than home.

LOL...thanks for the hyperbole.

Tommy Harper. A name I haven’t heard in a long time. :-)
To: CaptRon
When Harper did it. It had to be a weekend game. This was only time to see the
Sox in those days on TV. I think Drago was the Royals pitcher when this happened.

Q: What is the longest winning streak in Major League Baseball?
A: The 1916 Giants won 14 tied 1 won 12. In baseball, apparently, thats a 26 game winning streak as tied games are replayed but as one individual said, if the stats count, the games count.
The longest true winning streak was 21 games by the 1935 Chicago Cubs.
The American League record of 20 games was set in 2002 by the Oakland A’s.

wow, tommy harper, long time for that name. along with don mincher and tommy davis, harper was just about the only reason, position player wise, to pay attention to the ‘69 pilots.

PUH-leeze, it’s a 10 game winning streak.

I read Ball Four when I was a teenager. Tommy Harper, Gene Brabender, Ray Oyler, Gary Bell, Greg Goosen, Steve Hovley and Fred Talbert were great stories.

it sure was. I don’t know how many times I read that book. I got to play slow pitch softball with ray oyler a few years after he retired and he was still a comic. he died very young.
