And with Dimaggio's record, I read once (and can't find it to check) that a guy named Ken Keltner playing 3rd for the Indians made two really good plays on him the day it stopped and then he immediately had about a 17 game streak starting the next game. I don't remember what the exact number was.

As always the most unbreakable record in the history or sports is Fernando Tatis 2 grand slams in an inning.

There's some truth to that but it would be interesting to make a list of decent players who never had a 17 game streak.
and Dimaggio also lost $10K because he didn't get to 57 so the Heinz people could use him in an ad for their steak sauce
