Cameron Maybin goes 4 for 5 with two steals to extend his streak to 10 consecutive times reaching base before being retired

On September 19, 2008 —  In only his second appearance in the Miami Marlins rookie Cameron Maybin goes 4 for 5 with two steals to extend his streak to 10 consecutive times reaching base before being retired. Maybin, now hitting .818 since being acquired from Detroit, ties the Florida Marlins franchise record for consecutive times on base. Led by Maybin, the Marlins top Philadelphia, 14 – 8, to break a seven-game winning streak by the Phils, knocking them from first place in the NL East.

Maybin’s fear matches the accomplishments of Derrek Lee and Juan Encarnacion. The 21 year-old outfielder’s streak includes hits in eight straight at-bats, which also ties a team record shared by Preston Wilson and Gary Sheffield.
