20 Games in a Row for Guzmán Monday, May 22nd, 2023 He did it again! José Guzmán got another hit and ran his hitting streak to 20. He collected 1 hit in 4 at-bats, but that wasn't enough to win the game. His Baltimore Blue Claws were defeated 2-1 at Coney Island Coliseum by the Coney Island Cyclones. During the recent streak, the 19-year-old shortstop has remained quiet, sidestepping questions about it with ease. Whether for superstitious reasons or simply in an effort to avoid the spotlight, Guzmán 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." José Guzmán grounded out in the 1st, struck out in the 2nd, tripled in the 5th and flied out in the 8th. This season Guzmán has hit 2 home runs and posted a .323 batting average. |
