Stalin Hits in 30 Straight Games Thursday, May 23rd, 2024 He did it again! Buddah Stalin got another hit and ran his hitting streak to 30. He collected 1 hit in 4 at-bats, but that wasn't enough to win the game. His Jacksonville Hellcats were defeated 8-5 at Goers Field by the Temple Goers. During the recent streak, the 29-year-old first baseman has remained quiet, sidestepping questions about it with ease. Whether for superstitious reasons or simply in an effort to avoid the spotlight, Stalin preferred to shower praise on his team. He told reporters in the clubhouse after the loss, "We have a better ballclub than we showed today." "It's amazing to watch him hit right now, but I don't think anybody's really mentioning it," one of his teammates said. "So, we're trying to kind of keep that quiet... don't want to jinx him." Buddah Stalin singled in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, flied out in the 7th and walked in the 9th. |
