The 2006 MLB season has been one of streaks for several teams and the most impressive recent one was the Oakland A's 10 game streak prior to their trek to the Rocky Mountains!

The left-hander pitched eight strong innings on Friday, giving up three runs and eight hits while striking out a season-high 11 batters in a 7-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Rockies (36-35) have never seen, as Zito has never faced Colorado. The Rockies have now recorded four shutout wins at Coors Field this season, the most in a single season in that stadium's history.
