The previous active leader, Graham Manning, got to 46 — the third-longest streak this season — before getting stymied on Sunday. At the same time, “dtra1203,” whose real name remains unknown, climbed to the top of the list by selecting Mariners slugger Nelson Cruz.
That put “dtra1203” 15 successful picks away from the $5.6 million grand prize. He or she tried to get two games closer on Tuesday by taking advantage of Beat the Streak’s “Double Down” feature to select both White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu and Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager.
