Most Consectutive Reaching Base Safely to Start Career

[midwestoakfan]

Jay Bruce has had 2BB, 2 1B, and a 2B to start his MLB career.

What is the record for consectutive PA's without getting out to start career?

I saw that Ted Cox holds the record for most hits to start career in 1977 (6 hits).... and he had a walk in there, so is 7 the record? Can't find anything else related in a google search.

Paciorek also reached in 5 consecutive appearances to end his career.

In fact, they were the same 5 PAs.

Really? What happened? Whyd he never play again? Was he a pitcher?
