Not sure what his longest streak was. I never heard of him getting into a streak long enough to start counting, but I saw that when he was closing in he was getting multiple hits per game.
I saw his monthly hit totals and he had one month where he got 58 hits. He averaged a hit and half per game for the season. He's the type of guy that can bunt a ball down the third base line while he's half way to first.
If he gets a 30 something hitting streak going next year then everyone will be all over it. Since he doesn't speak english, he'll never even know what a big deal it is until he gets the Heinz 57 endorsement that Dimaggio missed out on.
