Max Muncy set a Major League postseason record when he reached base for the 12th consecutive time in the Los Angeles Dodgers\' 2-0 victory over the New York Mets in Game 4 of the NLCS on Thursday night.
Muncy broke the previous record of 10 with a fifth-inning walk and then extended the mark to 12 with a seventh-inning single before striking out in the eighth.
The previous single postseason record of 10 was shared by Billy Hatcher with the Cincinnati Reds in 1990 and David Ortiz with the Boston Red Sox in 2007.
Reggie Jackson also reached 12 consecutive times over two postseasons in 1977-78.
\"It\'s one of those things where I feel like I\'m staying within myself and not trying to do anything too extraordinary,\" Muncy said. \"It\'s allowed me to see the ball better and slow things down.\"
