The belief that hitting streaks don't carry over to another season is held by most sources, including the Baseball Hall of Fame. In their <a href="http://www.baseballhalloffame.org/library/research_lists/hit_streaks.htm" target="_blank">Hitting Streak Research Page</a>, a list of every modern-day hit streak 30 games or longer is provided, and no mention is made of Morris' streak, which ended at the end of '96 at 29 games. Most other sources that I came across also listed Morris' streak 'officially' at 29 games.
