1941---56 vs .406

while I whole-heartedly believe that .406 is the more impressive and more impactful stat, i cannot discount 56 as anything short of a great achievement.



first of all it must be noted how far ahead 56 is then the next closest streak. 45. thats 9 full games better.. which is an extrordinary amount when viewed in context of where the next best streaks are.

hmmm... ??

it's an incredible mixture of luck and talent to get a hit streak that long. there's no way you can attribute it solely to one or the other.

I am going to have to agree with GF. You have to be both good and lucky to get that sort of hit streak.
