MLB Streak Watch
Streak Watch: Atlanta Braves Have Won 7 Straight (MLB)
Published
Every result in MLB feeds a streak somewhere, and a few of them have now grown big enough to deserve names. Everything below comes straight off the results; nothing fancier than counting.
There are nine clubs carrying streaks of three games or longer at the moment, which tells you something about how streaky this stretch of the calendar has been.
The teams stacking wins
Atlanta Braves have won seven straight, the longest active run in the league. Winning streaks change how a club carries itself, every bounce feels earned, every close game feels like it belongs to them until somebody proves otherwise.
Milwaukee Brewers are building a case of their own at 4 straight.
Philadelphia Phillies join the party at 3 straight.
Stuck in the barrel
The skid to watch belongs to Los Angeles Angels, losers of six in a row. Runs like this always end eventually; the only question is how much damage gets done before they do.
It is not much prettier for Texas Rangers, losers of 4 straight.
Colorado Rockies have lost 4 straight themselves, in case anyone at the cold end needed company.
At a glance
Every active streak of three or more, in one place:
| Team | Active streak |
|---|---|
| Atlanta Braves | won 7 straight |
| Los Angeles Angels | lost 6 straight |
| Milwaukee Brewers | won 4 straight |
| Texas Rangers | lost 4 straight |
| Colorado Rockies | lost 4 straight |
The fine print
At 7 games, the board's longest streak is officially a main character; nothing else in the league gets talked about the same way while it lives.
A streak is history with good posture: impressive to look at, honest about the past, silent about tonight. Markets know this, which is why streaking teams get funny prices.
Next up on the slate: Atlanta Braves against San Francisco Giants. Check back after that one goes final.
