That is remarkable! All the more so because while everyone knew to save the record breaking lineup card, there was no reason for quite a few years to assume any significance to the first game as it took years of playing every day for the streak to begin to matter.
I have the lineup card (carbon copy) from the game that broke Steve Garvey's consecutive game streak. I believe that is still the NL streak. Kind of interesting for the fact he is not in the lineup...
