Stan Musial Nears Iron Man Milestone in 822nd Straight Game
Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals is set to play his 822nd consecutive game, equaling Gus Suhr’s National League record. The star already leads the league in extra-base hits and is poised to add runs scored RBIs, total bases, and two-base hits to his totals. Since 1952 he has played 821 straight games, missing some only to accommodate team needs and injuries. Musial's durability follows a career of nine complete seasons, second only to Lou Gehrig’s long streak.
