Astros prospect Randy Cesar saw his record-setting hit streak come to an end on Friday, as he went 0-for-4 in Double-A Corpus Christi's 2-1 loss to Arkansas.

Longest hitting streaks in Minor League history
After a three-day layoff for the Texas League All-Star Game, Cesar extended his hitting streak to 42 games with a first-inning double on Thursday, but he was unable to carry the momentum any further.

The 23-year-old third baseman topped Bobby Trevino's 37-game hitting streak in 1969 for the El Paso Sun Kings. When Cesar doubled to run his streak to 38, he said, he knew he was entering the history books.
"Of course," Cesar said after his record-breaking hit. "I feel very proud."
"It's the longest [streak] I've seen in person," his hitting coach, Troy Snitker, said. "It's been really impressive over such a long period of time. A lot of things have happened. He's battled multiple injuries, gone down to the wire multiple times."
During the first 20 games of the streak, Cesar only went hitless into his fourth plate appearance one time, but in the second 20 games, he got his first hit of the game in his fourth plate appearance six times, and in another game, the 36th of the streak, he didn't collect his hit until his fifth plate appearance.
Cesar set the Texas League mark, but fell short of the all-time Minor League record, which is 69 games, set by Joe Wilhoit in 1919. Joe DiMaggio -- who of course has the Major League record hitting streak, 56 games for the Yankees in 1941 -- also has the second-longest Minor League streak ever, a 61-gamer in 1933.
