Here are some questions we have thought about for future posts.
- What players have the most consecutive PAs without getting a on-base.
- What pitchers have the longest streak of strikes, with a tiebreaker of consecutive called strikes.
- What pitchers have the longest streak of balls.
- What is the longest string of PAs without a hit?
- What is the longest string of PAs without a HR?
Here are two tables with the details. This table includes all streaks that are 10 PAs or longer. The entries in the table specify how many such streaks the player had. For example Robles had a 23 PA streak, two that were 15 long; and so on.

QUESTION #1
Our first question is what Nationals’ player (excluding pitchers) had the longest streak of PAs (plate appearances) without a hit in 2021. And this only includes players who actually appeared for the Nationals. The only rule we have is that you have to do this from memory. No looking at game logs on any of the online resources that might have this info. And the tie-breaker question if multiple folks guess the right player is how long the streak was. What does the winner get? Absolutely nothing except for a few kudos. At some point before the next post comes online (which may or may not be another question in this series) either DonH or I will post the answer here as an update and try to answer any follow-up questions.BONUS
Who had the longest streak for the Nats since 2018?Here are some questions we have thought about for future posts.
- What players have the most consecutive PAs without getting a on-base.
- What pitchers have the longest streak of strikes, with a tiebreaker of consecutive called strikes.
- What pitchers have the longest streak of balls.
- What is the longest string of PAs without a hit?
- What is the longest string of PAs without a HR?
Here are two tables with the details. This table includes all streaks that are 10 PAs or longer. The entries in the table specify how many such streaks the player had. For example Robles had a 23 PA streak, two that were 15 long; and so on.
