Nolan Schanuel's Historic On-Base Streak Ends at 30 Games

A retroactive scoring change by MLB, prompted by an Orioles appeal, halts the Angels rookie's record pursuit.

  • Los Angeles Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel's on-base streak ended at 30 games after MLB retroactively changed a scoring decision.
  • The scoring change came after an appeal by the Baltimore Orioles, turning what was initially ruled an infield hit into an error.
  • Angels broadcasters criticized MLB for the decision, highlighting the positive story Schanuel's streak represented amid other controversies.
  • Schanuel was two games away from having the second-best on-base streak to start a career in MLB history.
  • Despite the streak ending, Schanuel has reached base in every game of his career so far, through hits, walks, hit by pitches, or errors.
