hitting streak
Unbroken batting run
A hitting streak in baseball is a consecutive run of games in which a batter gets at least one hit.
The streak ends when a player goes hitless in a complete game.
Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak in 1941 remains one of baseball's most celebrated records.
The term extends to other sports where similar consecutive-game achievements are tracked: She's on a twelve-game hitting streak.
