After going 1-for-5 for the Dash on Friday night, Jacob Burke has now reached base in all 52 of his games played between Kannapolis and Winston-Salem this year.
Because he's running perfect attendance in this regard, it's easy enough to keep track of the specific number, but he told Jeff Cohen that once he surpassed Colson Montgomery's record in Kannapolis the year before, the novelty more or less wore off.
Burke is now hitting .343/.457/.558 over 17 games with Winston-Salem, and .315/.430/.490 when factoring in the 35 games with the Cannon Ballers.
