Bombers End Bettcher's Streak Friday, June 10th, 2033 The 25-game hitting streak of Billings Mustangs right fielder Jeff Bettcher came to an end today at Bronx Ballpark. The Bronx Bombers held him hitless in 4 at-bats and also sent the Mustangs down to defeat, 6-3. Later, Bettcher acknowledged to BNN reporters that the hit streak meant something to him. "It was special," he said, "but I think other people make a bigger deal out of it than I do, or the players do. It was what we're all supposed to do; go out and hit the ball and try to score runs. It was a cool deal, but it's over now. Let's try to start a new one." In 58 games this season Bettcher has batted at a .351 pace with 78 hits and 3 home runs. |
