Longest recently is 2002 with the A's at 20. Moneyball streak.MayDay10 said:
There have been 27 at 15 or more, where they are now, and if they win tonight, it will be the 20th longest ever, and longest since 1977.mrussel1 said:Indians with 14 game win streaks in back to back seasons has only happened twice before. 35/36 Cubs, and once before that but can't remember the details. Still very rare.
The funny thing is, Arizona has a 13 game streak going and it is flying under the radar.0 -
And they're now only 10 games back of the Dodgers.MayDay10 said:

Martinez and Maddux! Forgot about them!HesCalledDyer said:
Yep, they were bros. I forgot about them! A few I recall off the top of my head:tempo_n_groove said:
The only other pitching brother combo I can recall was the Leiters and the Niekros. Oh wait Perry too. Was there Benes brothers too?HesCalledDyer said:In the 1934 World Series, St. Louis Cardinals pitchers Dizzy and Daffy Dean - brothers - each won two games as the Gashouse Gang defeated the Detroit Tigers 4 games to 3. They are the only brothers to account for all 4 victories on a World Series winning team.

Greg & Mike Maddux
Ramon & Pedro Martinez

There's more but I'd have to look them up.0 -
Didn't realize this but "El Duque" Orlando Hernandez is Livan's half-brother. Between the two of them, 5x World Series Champions (Orlando 4, Livan 1), 2 LCS MVPs (1 each), & a WS MVP (Livan).tempo_n_groove said:

Jose Canseco has the most famous pitching appearance by a position player and his twin, Ozzy, was a decent minor league pitcher.
Bob and Ken Forsch had a nice run.
There are quite a few pitching brothers that did pretty well. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1174218-25-best-brother-pitching-acts-in-mlb-history

Trivia:
David Ross hit a home run in his final Major League at-bat, helping the Cubs to victory in the 2016 World Series. What former Cub did Ross hit his 1st career Major League home run off of?
(Hint: The former Cub was not playing for the Cubs when served the HR to Ross)

Didn't he homer off Andrew Miller?
I didn't think he was a cub....

Never mind, I didn't read properly!

I'm going Rick Sutcliffe. This is a good guess since David Ross is older than Julio Franco.0

I've never seen a team fall apart in the span of 2 week. like the Marlins. Blowing 9th innings leads. 2 wins in 2 weeks when they were on the cusp of a 2nd Wild Card spot. I know the Dodgers haven't been playing well either. But they can afford to lose at this pointI miss igotid880

2 of the greatest collapses that I saw were my Angels in 95 then Frisco when the Braves got stupid hot and took first place.igotid88 said:I've never seen a team fall apart in the span of 2 week. like the Marlins.
