Do you agree with bud selig that this is the golden age of baseball?

All time it's Joe DiMaggio, he had a 56 game hitting streak for New York (A) in 1941. Second longest since 1900 is Pete Rose, who had 44 straight games with a hit in 1978.

BTW after DiMaggio's streak was snapped he started another 17 game streak, giving him 73 games with a hit out of 74.

Alex Rodriguez. Will He Be The All time home run leader and surpass hank aarons record?

It is Dimaggio and let us remember that is without steroids so it should stand and if it does not the new record holder shoudl be tested....
