CULVER CITY; Calif. (KGO) -- You may see a lot more of Oakland's Amy Schneider on 'Jeopardy!' even after her winning streak ends - if it ever does!

GMA asked him about Schneider's current hot streak.

"I'm a big baseball fan, and there are times when two of the best players ever are on the field, at the same time, and then you go decades without somebody that good so I'm loath to try to interpret too much beyond that," said Amodio.

Schneider is the first woman to win a total of $1 million making her the most successful female contestant and transgender contestant of all time.

You can watch her keep this winning streak going weeknights at 7 on ABC7.
