Longest Streak Broken


Braves second baseman DAN UGGLA had a 33-game hitting streak snapped yesterday when he went 0 for 3 against the Cubs.
Uggla almost had a bloop single to right field in the fifth inning, but Cubs second baseman Darwin Barney made an incredible diving catch to rob him. Barney had to run halfway into right field to get there. Then he completely laid out.
The 33-game hitting streak was the longest in Braves history, and the longest in the majors since 2006. Joe Dimagio’s 56-game hitting streak in 1941 is still the record.
