Matches in DBpedia 2016-04 for { ?s ?p "Listed below are the longest consecutive games played in Major League Baseball history. To compile such a streak, a player must appear in every game played by his team. The streak is broken if the team completes a game in which the player neither takes a turn at bat nor plays a half-inning in the field. The record of playing in 2,632 consecutive games over more than 16 years is held by Cal Ripken, Jr. of the Baltimore Orioles. Ripken surpassed Lou Gehrig of the New York Yankees, whose record of 2,130 consecutive games had stood for 56 years. Before Gehrig, the record was held by Everett Scott (1,307 consecutive games), a shortstop with the Red Sox and Yankees whose streak ended in 1925, less than a month before Gehrig's began. Scott broke the previous record which was established by George Pinkney (577 consecutive games) from 1885–1890.The record for a National League player is held by Steve Garvey of the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres (1975–1983), though Garvey's 1,207-game streak is less than half the length of Ripken's. Previous holders of the National League record include Billy Williams of the Chicago Cubs (1963–1970), Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals (1952–1957), and Gus Suhr of the Pittsburgh Pirates (1931–1937). Of the top 17 streaks on this list, 9 were compiled by members of the Baseball Hall of Fame. Two others are separate streaks compiled by Pete Rose, who was named one of the top 30 players of the 20th century but is banned from the Hall of Fame. The longest current streak is 162 consecutive games played, by third baseman Manny Machado of the Baltimore Orioles. Machado was the only major leaguer to play in every game in 2015, after missing the last 44 games of the 2014 season. There are only two currently active major league players with streaks of 500 or more games on their resumes: Prince Fielder played 547 consecutive games in 2010-2014, and Alex Rodriguez played 546 in 2000-2003. However, Miguel Tejada, who compiled the 5th longest streak of all time (1,152 games between June 2, 2000 and June 21, 2007), is still playing minor-league ball."@en }
