When presented forthrightly, the good news can be useful.

A hitting streak may be mentionable when it reaches 10 consecutive games, interesting when it hits 20. It won't get national attention until it reaches 30 because one of baseball's shiniest records is Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak in 1941-an achievement never seriously challenged. (But note: Not only did Boston's Ted Williams out-hit New York's DiMaggio that year, .406 to .357, Williams also hit for a higher average during DiMaggio's streak, .412 to .408.)
