Following Sunday’s win against the Rangers, Walker Buehler extended his unbeaten streak to 22 straight starts, the second longest streak in Dodgers history. Kirby Higbe holds the record at 23, but given Buehler’s hot hand, it seems more and more likely Buehler could set a new Los Angeles record.
To put it into perspective, the last time Buehler took a regular season loss was in 2019, when pandemics were a trope of movies and fans flocked like cattle to baseball stadiums to eat, sing, cheer and be jolly.
