MLB Streak Watch
MLB Streak Watch, Colorado Rockies's Run Hits 7
Published
Streaks are the league's pulse. You can read the whole mood of MLB off who keeps stacking wins and who cannot find the exit, and this morning's board, counted straight from the results table, has some runs worth talking about.
Count them up and eight teams are currently on streaks of at least three, so there is no shortage of momentum stories to argue about.
Riding high
San Diego Padres 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.
Detroit Tigers carry a 4-game winning run of their own.
Add Washington Nationals to the list too, 3 in a row.
Going the wrong way
The skid to watch belongs to Colorado Rockies, losers of seven in a row. Runs like this always end eventually; the only question is how much damage gets done before they do.
Los Angeles Angels have dropped 3 in a row themselves.
San Francisco Giants round out the skid list at 3 in a row.
By the numbers
The full board, longest runs first:
| Team | Active streak |
|---|---|
| Colorado Rockies | lost 7 straight |
| San Diego Padres | won 7 straight |
| Detroit Tigers | won 4 straight |
| Los Angeles Angels | lost 3 straight |
| Washington Nationals | won 3 straight |
Worth remembering
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.
None of these runs are forever. Enjoy them as stories, count them honestly, and remember the results table starts blank again tomorrow.
One to circle: Colorado Rockies meet San Diego Padres in their next game, and we will find out quickly whether this stretch travels.
