As far as getting credit for his current hitting streak, I am not really familiar with how the game keeps track of hitting streaks.

I will try to find it out and process your request.
I think the hitting streak should only be mentioned if he extends it on the first hit. Any hit after that is just gravy and doesn't extend the streak.

I found it a bit strange that the player would not be credited with a 17 and 18 game hit streak. In the end it likely won't matter, he didn't set a record or anything, I was just impressed that he was able to do it twice in one season. I think I'm going to edit his history to mention this feat.

Thanks for noting my comment.
