About Home Run Streaks
Who is homering in consecutive games
This board lists every MLB batter currently on a home run streak, longest first — how many straight games, how many home runs across the run, and the date of the most recent one. Unlike a same-day home run log, a batter appears here whether or not he played on the date you are viewing: a hitter resting after homering in three straight is still on a three-game streak.
What counts as a home run streak?
Consecutive games in which a batter homered — games played, not calendar days. A hitter who homers Monday, has Tuesday off, and homers Wednesday is on a two-game streak. A game he played without a home run ends it.
What happens if a player does not bat in a game?
That game is skipped entirely — it neither counts toward the streak nor ends it. A defensive replacement who never came to the plate keeps his streak alive. A pinch-hit appearance without a home run does end it, because he batted.
How are doubleheaders handled?
As two separate games. Homering in both ends of a doubleheader advances a streak by two, and homering in the opener but not the nightcap ends it the same day it was extended.
Does a multi-home-run game count as more than one?
No. A two-homer night advances the streak by a single game, like any other. The home runs still count toward the total shown for the streak.
How often does the board update?
Each morning. Streaks are calculated from finished games using Statcast data, which arrives the morning after a slate — so a streak reflects games through the previous day rather than one in progress.
Does a home run streak predict the next home run?
Not meaningfully. Home runs are close to random given a hitter’s underlying power and the matchup, and streaks add little on top of that. The board is here as a results feed and a research starting point, not a projection — our home run model does not use streaks as an input.
