MLB Streak Watch
MLB Streak Watch, Philadelphia Phillies's Run Hits 6
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 seven 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.
Riding high
Philadelphia Phillies have won six 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.
Pittsburgh Pirates are building a case of their own at 3 straight.
And Minnesota Twins make it a crowd with 3 consecutive wins.
Going the wrong way
On the other side of the ledger, Athletics have dropped five straight. Losing streaks carry their own gravity, the pressing starts, the bounces stop cooperating, and close games keep finding the same ending.
Detroit Tigers have dropped 3 in a row themselves.
And Arizona Diamondbacks are quietly carrying a 3-game slide of their own.
At a glance
The full board, longest runs first:
| Team | Active streak |
|---|---|
| Philadelphia Phillies | won 6 straight |
| Athletics | lost 5 straight |
| Pittsburgh Pirates | won 3 straight |
| Minnesota Twins | won 3 straight |
| Texas Rangers | won 3 straight |
The fine print
A 6-game run is long enough that it stops being a footnote and starts being the lead, expect it to come up in every broadcast until it ends.
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.
