| Hot Bat Cooled, Garrigues Hitless Against Bluebirds Thursday, March 23rd , 2045 Toufik Garrigues came rolling into today's game against the Camagüey College Bluebirds with a 29-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Bluebirds Park.
The 20-year-old Vancouver College Players second baseman went 0-for-4 against the Bluebirds as the Players fell, 5-4.
"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."
Garrigues is currently batting .410 with 5 home runs and 20 RBIs. | | |
