Yep, it's shocking, astounding, even scandalizing, to learn that Timmeh is second best at anything, but in this case he is. Ubaldo Jimenez is first with 61.
Phrasing the response in the form of a question... What is active streaks of consecutive games started without allowing multiple home runs, Alex?
If Jimenez can keep it going for 4 more games he'll tie Bob Bruce for 25th place on the NL all-time list. The NL (and MLB) record is 166 consecutive starts and seemingly out of reach forever; as with the single-season record for triples, the game has simply changed too much. The NL record for combined consecutive starts and relief appearances without allowing multiple home runs is 573.
