He was picked up by the Boston Braves in ’16 and also played for the Pirates before the Giants traded him in ’19 to Wichita.

In 128 games for Wichita, he batted .422 and put together that record streak, which was finally snapped Aug. 19.

Wilhoit had a pedestrian .257 batting average in the majors, but he feasted on Western League pitching after the trade. … Druw Jones, the No. 2 pick in this year’s MLB draft by the Diamondbacks, will miss the rest of the season after injuring his shoulder in his first batting practice.
