Jordan Walker extended his hitting streak in the St. Louis Cardinals' game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday afternoon.
Walker, 20, has hit safely in all nine games he's played this season. Only two other players in history have started their careers with hitting streaks that long at age 20 or younger.
- Eddie Murphy, 1912 Philadelphia Athletics: 12 games
- Jordan Walker, 2023 St. Louis Cardinals: 9 games and counting
- Ted Williams, 1939 Boston Red Sox: 9 games
The longest hitting streak to begin a career at any age is 17 games, a record shared by Chuck Aleno of the 1941 Cincinnati Reds and David Dahl of the 2016 Colorado Rockies.
