Cigars End Santos Streak Monday, July 31st , 2062 Ricardo Santos came rolling into today's game against the Havana Cigars with a 22-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Castro Field. The 19-year-old Cat Island Pirates left fielder went 0-for-3 against the Cigars as the Pirates fell, 2-0. "I swung at a couple pitches I probably shouldn't have and I didn't swing at a couple I probably should have," he said, grimacing. "But that's what makes a hit streak so impressive in the first place -- it only takes a couple mistakes to end it all." Santos is currently hitting at a .333 pace with 4 home runs and 25 RBIs. He has played in 49 games and scored 23 times. |
