Baseball record chase shows long winning streaks and slips
Galveston’s Dwight Leveritt cites 1895 claim by George Bristow for 23 straight wins with the Yazoo Delta, though no solid records exist. He notes Rube Marquard and Tim Keefe each matched 19 straight wins, all halted by the Cubs, while Old Hoss Radbourne had 18 straight in 1884 and 60 that season. Chatham’s 11 consecutive hits ties Tris Speaker’s world mark.
