Xander Bogaerts extended his career-high hitting streak to 25 games on Wednesday night with a single to center field in the sixth inning against the Baltimore Orioles.

Only teammate Jackie Bradley, Jr. has a longer hitting streak in the Major Leagues this season. He had a 29-game streak snapped last Thursday.

Bogaerts is five games shy of tying Nomar Garciaparra for the longest hitting streak by a Boston Red Sox shortstop. Garciaparra hit safely in 30 straight in 1997.
