Having perused the archives at baseball-reference.com I will make the following corrections to my previous post. Dimaggio homered 361 times and struck out 369 times.

Still, pretty impressive numbers. Especially considering that he only played 13 seasons and missed three seasons at the peak of his career due to the war.

And if you throw out his last season he had more career HR's than SO's.

That is the most amazing statistic in baseball.

Q. What streak will likely never be broken?
