    Alcides Escobar breaks DiMaggios record!!

    Never seen anyone get even close, and then this pops in the Transactions box... It was simmed, and CPU controlled. I checked every box score just to see it wasnt a bug, and it wasnt. He's batting .380 for the year, and has a lot of 1 hit games....



    Additionally, he's on pace to break Ichiros single season hit record, even though he isnt likely to keep the pace up....

    Best i've ever seen was a 44 game hitting streak by Hank Greenburg. 59 is crazy.

    This one is from August 1st the same year:



    funny how he only has 18 walks and he has been caught stealing on almost half his attempts......Doesnt bring much other offense than his hits, most of them singles. And people complain that Ichiro doesnt knock in runs......

    Yeah, I was just going to say. I don't know if he would really be a everyday player. Great hitter off the bench maybe.

    He still gets on base a fair amount. He's atleast a good #9 hitter if nothing else.

    True. Probably one of the best number 9 hitters of all time.

    I would take a good list over him. No eye, zero power, frustrating runner....

    He's still getting on base over 40% of the time though.
