From ESPN:
Today would have been Lou Gehrig's 112th birthday and his 2,130 consecutive games played remains the 2nd-longest streak in MLB history. Coincidentally, the two longest active streaks ended last night when Freddie Freeman (234) and Kyle Seager (192) didn't play. The new active leader is Chris Coghlan, 2,504 games shy of Cal Ripken Jr.'s record.
