Red-hot Pratt sets World Series rookie record with hit in six straight at-bats

Cooper Pratt chose the perfect time to get locked in. The 22-year-old set a World Series record for a rookie with a hit in six straight at-bats, spanning Games 4 and 5 on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Pratt had four hits in the Brewers' crushing walk-off loss in Game 4, including a home run in the top of the 12th inning that put them on the doorstep of clinching their first World Series title.

He then stayed hot the following night with an RBI single in his first at-bat against Drew Rasmussen and another knock in his second against reliever Kevin Kelly. 

The last player with six straight hits in the World Series was David Ortiz for the Red Sox in 2013. The Yankees' Brian Doyle held the previous rookie record of five straight, done in 1978.
