It didn’t take long for Jackie Bradley Jr. to end the suspense in Game 2 of the Red Sox’ doubleheader with the Royals, Wednesday night.
The Red Sox center fielder extended his hit streak to 24 games with a solo, two-out home run in the second inning, launching a high changeup from Kansas City starter Edison Volquez over the left-center field fence.

Bradley had kept his streak going in Game 1, waiting until the ninth inning to rifle a single into right field in the Red Sox’ 3-2 loss.

The last Red Sox player to claim a hit streak as long as Bradley’s was David Ortiz, who managed to hit safely in 27 straight in 2013.

tied Wade Boggs streak:

After notching a double in his first at-bat against the Colorado Rockies Tuesday night at Fenway Park, Bradley stretched his hitting streak to 28 games, tying him with Wade Boggs for the fourth-longest hitting streak in Red Sox history. If Bradley continues his streak Wednesday night, he'll tie Johnny Damon for the third-longest streak.
