Bees Halt Álvarez Hit Streak Tuesday, July 29th , 2064 Newton Falls Flying Tigers second baseman Jesús Álvarez and his hot bat finally met their match at Tiger Den. The Providence Bees snapped his 21-game hitting string, holding Álvarez hitless in 4 at-bats and also whipping Newton Falls, 9-3, for good measure. "We're real pleased with this one," Bees manager Ramón García said. "Nobody wants to be on the wrong end of a streak like that, and clobbering Newton Falls makes it even sweeter." This season, Álvarez is hitting at a .336 pace with 22 home runs, 58 RBIs and has scored 74 times. |
