## Resource

Nick Kurtz, with the Athletics, is making history, tying Rickey Hendersons franchise record for consecutive games reaching base. Known for his patience at the plate, Kurtz leads the league in on-base percentage, walking over 100 times this season. Hes joined elite company, hitting 30 homers, driving in 100 runs, and walking 100 times in his first 162 games, a feat only Ted Williams and Juan Soto have achieved before. If he maintains his streak, Kurtz could surpass Jimmie Foxx for second place on the all-time list. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
