You've probably read all the articles by now about the Dodgers tying an old record for the most wins in a 50 game stretch. It's pretty impressive...
Dodgers join elite company with 10th straight win | MLB.com: News
The victory puts the Dodgers in elite company. They are 42-8 since June 22, matching the 1941 Yankees and 1942 Cardinals for the best 50-game stretch since 1900.
but I don't care too much about the Dodgers. If you're anything like me you're more interested in the Padres best record over a 50 games stretch. I did the research, you do the reading.
The Padres best 50 game stretch happened in 1998 and its worst in 1969.
