cvillecat Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 It is good to see Webb doing well. A strong finish and he could win his 2nd straight Cy Young. Not only is Webb a great pitcher but he is a class act as welll.
cshs81 Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 What's the record? 54? 56? I know Drysdale had a streak going at one point and it appeared that it was over when he hit a batter with bases loaded. However, the batter was called back after Blue said he didn't make any attempt to get out of the way. He then was put out and the streak continued.
sweet16 Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Orel Hershiser has the record. I think it is 56.
The Scribe Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 59 is the record. Webb is up to 41 through 8 in Atlanta.
The Scribe Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 On a side note, I was at the game at Dodger Stadium where Orel gave up his last runs before beginning his streak in 1988. I guess I'm bad luck.
LRCW Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 59 is the record. Webb is up to 41 through 8 in Atlanta. Webb throws a 2 hit shutout for his 3rd straight shutout and the steak is at 42. Unbelievable. I was going to come looking for you Scibe if you had jinxed him.
