Weeks sets franchise record

When he scored on Prince Fielder's single in the first inning today, Rickie Weeks carved out his own little place in Milwaukee Brewers lore.

It was the 17th straight game in which Weeks scored a run, breaking the record previously held by Paul Molitor. It also tied the NL modern-day record held by Ted Kluzewski and Rogers Hornsby.

The MLB record of 18 straight games is shared by Red Rolf and Kenny Lofton.
