Picked up a cool circa 1950s ink blotter with a fact that isn't widely talked about.

According to an “article” about the numbers during the streak on the ESPN website, Joe had only 55 RBIs during the 56 game streak.
Baseball Almanac also credits him with only 55 RBIs during the streaks. 56 singles and runs scored appear to be correct. |
Either way , That is super cool!

Cool, An error card :)
