So each day, we'll be picking a different Marlins organizational player in the "Beat the Streak" game on MiLB.com. If the batter gets a hit, the streak continues. It's fairly easy to follow and we'll make the rules that you can only use a player every 10 days or so.
MiLB record: 69, Joe Wilhoit, Wichita Witches, 1919
MLB record: 56, Joe DiMaggio, New York Yankees, 1941
Our first selection will be none other than phenom Mike Stanton. The 20 year old is off to a torrid start in Jacksonville, hitting .299/.443/.715 with 15 homers in 137 at bats. He's been in a funk over his last 10 games hitting just .189/.348/.378 in 37 at bats. His opponent tonight is Cubs prospect Austin Bibens-Dirkx. In 7 starts, he is 1-1 with a 2.19era. Righties are hitting just .176 off of him.
If we're going to start taking aim at Wilhoit and Joe D, we're going to need Stanton to snap out of this funk and get us on the board at 1.
