Rays’ rookie Wander Franco had reached base safely in 43 consecutive games during the regular season. His 43-game on-base streak tied with Frank Robinson in 1956 for the longest in AL/NL history by a player 20 years old or younger. In addition, there are several rookies who had a pretty good 2021 season and they were playing like Wander Franco, who got on-base frequently.
