Woodpeckers End Kringen's Streak Saturday, March 29th , 2059 Uriah Kringen came rolling into today's game against the Woodstock HS Woodpeckers with a 22-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at The Nest. The 17-year-old Bishop Gorman HS Gamblers left fielder went 0-for-4 against the Woodpeckers as the Gamblers fell, 3-2. "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." This season Kringen is batting .368 with 43 hits, 6 home runs, 21 RBIs, 19 walks, .461 OBP and has scored 25 runs. He has played in 30 games. |
