Ohtani's 51-Game Streak: Rewriting Baseball History

0:00On April 19th, Shohei Otani just locked in third place all by himself on the Dodgers longest on-base streaks since 1900. He smacked an RBI double to Rife field in the third inning off Rocky Starter, Michael Lorenz and on Sunday, pushing his streak to 51 games and passing We Willie Keeler. That hit means Otani has reached face safely every time he stepped up since August 24th, 2025. Now he's just two games behind second place, held by Sean Greene with 53 straights back in 2000. Dodgers fans are buzzing because the franchise record belongs to Duke Snyder with 58 games in 1954, while Ron C sits fifth. At 47 from 75 to 76, Otani's run highlights his all-around dominance this season. In the bigger MLB picture over the last 20 years, his 51 games rank fourth, one shy of Kevin Malar and Shinsu Chu at 52 each. From 2007 and 2018, Orlando Cabrera owns the top spot there with 63 in 2006.

1:03All eyes stay on Otani as he chases those marks, proving once again why he's rewriting baseball history one base at a time. Stay tuned with MLB News Today, AI-powered updates.
