How many times did Joe DiMaggio strike out during the hitting streak?

Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak was between May 15, 1941 and July 16, 1941. For those 56 games, DiMaggio had 91 hits in 223 at bats for a .408 batting average with 15 home runs and 55 RBIs.


Did Al Rosen help break Joe Dimaggio's hitting streak?

No ... Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak was in 1941 and Al Rosen's first game with the Indians was in 1947. The third baseman you are looking for is Ken Keltner. The streak did end against the Indians and DiMaggio hit two shots down the 3rd base line that Keltner flagged down and threw Joe out at first. He also hit a ground ball that took a bad hop and shortstop Lou Boudreau barehanded the ball to start a 6-4-3 double play.

How many World Series rings does Joe DiMaggio have?

Joe DiMaggio played on nine World Series winning New York Yankee teams (36-39, 41, 47, 49-51). The Yankees lost to St. Louis in the 1942 World Series, the only DiMaggio team to lose a World Series. DiMaggio's World Series stats weren't quite up to his regular season performances. He hit only .273 in 51 World Series games with 8 HRs and 30 RBIs. But Since the question asks how many rings Joe DiMaggio has, the answer gets a bit complicated, eight of his nine rings were stolen in the 1960's from his Lexington Hotel room, the only remaining ring was his 1936 rookie year World Series ring. However, at Mr. DiMaggio's final appearance (September 1998) at Yankee Stadium, George Steinbrenner presented Joltin' Joe with 8 exact replicas of his missing rings.
