pcullotta Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Catcher A.J. Pierzynski set an American League record in Tuesday night's loss with his 954th consecutive errorless chance. He passed Yogi Berra's mark of 950 set from July 28, 1957, to Oct. 10, 1959. Pierzynski, who hasn't been charged with an error since April 18, 2005, entered Wednesday night's play 10 games short of tying Rick Cerone's American League record of 159 straight errorless games from July 5, 1987 to May 8, 1989 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greasywheels121 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I saw this. They keep writing this daily in the White Sox articles. I'm so nervous of a jinx. I'd love to see him get the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This years AJ is wayyy better than last years. Keep it up AJ!! I believe last year's AJ triggered the Sox playoff run with his strikeout...everyone obviously played well, but AJ's K caused a huge swing of momentum towards the Sox. Therefore, last year's AJ was better than this year's AJ, no matter what his stats say. Last year's stats indicate a World Series trophy on the South Side, where as this year's doesn't indicate anything near that level..yet. Still, a .330 average is solid.
