Anyway, it got me thinking - does anyone know the record for the most home losses in a row to start a season? I figure I must be somewhat close at this point.
Go back a few months and you'll find that the Royals started this season 0-10 before beating the Yankees where Rivera got injured pre-game.
There have been two others with longer streaks - the 1994 Cubs 0-12, and the 1913 Yankees 0-17, with one tie in their 11th game against the Red Sox. The Yanks' first win at the Polo Grounds was against the White Sox on June 7.
