Griffin Joins Hall of Famers with 3-Game MLB Streak

Konnor Griffin has reached base in his first three major‑league games, placing him alongside Hall of Famers Adrian Beltre, Andruw Jones and Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez.

Konnor Griffin, the rookie shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates, reached base in each of his first three MLB games, a feat last accomplished by Hall of Famers Adrian Beltre (1998), Andruw Jones (1996) and Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez (1991). Despite a modest 1‑for‑9 line, Griffin’s early success puts him in a rare company of young players who made a mark in their debut outings.
