All-time context, cited not derived: the recognized major-league record is Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak with the New York Yankees in 1941, published in Retrosheet's streak research. It predates the 1988-2025 play-by-play coverage here and is listed for context only.
Derivation: a streak extends in every game with at least one hit, breaks in a game with at least one official at-bat and no hit, and runs through games with only walks, hit-by-pitches or sacrifices (the official rule), through team changes (a trade never ends a streak) and through the off-season. A winter break is why Jimmy Rollins' 38-gamer shows as 2005-06. Games the player did not bat in, whether missed entirely or entered as a runner or fielder, neither extend nor break a streak; such appearances are not distinguishable in the event files.
Every player-season total used to build these lines was cross-checked field-by-field against the independently staged season aggregate (33,224 of 33,224 player-seasons matched exactly), and every season's game count matches the staged coverage table.
