With his fifth inning home run against the Reds on Wednesday night, Jorge Cantu has set a Major League record for the most consecutive games with both a hit and an RBI to start a season. Wednesday's game was his ninth in a row to start the year. The home run also set another record for Cantu, as he became the first player to have an RBI in the first nine games of the season.
Additionally, dating back to last season, Cantu now has an RBI in his last 13 games. That's just 4 shy of the all-time record of 17, which dates back to Oscar Ray Grimes for the 1922 Chicago Cubs.
