Maston's 27-Game Hit Streak Ends
Thursday, May 4th , 2062
For once, it was the Rutland Voodoos picking up the slack for Joe Maston.
The club's "offensive catalyst," as Rutland manager Jason Fritz has frequently called him, went uncharacteristically silent and saw his 27-game hitting streak snapped by the Baie-Comeau All Blacks. Maston was bailed out by the rest of the Voodoos, however, who stopped the All Blacks, 14-3.
The 16-year-old shortstop finished the day 0-for-3, and told reporters at the postgame press conference that "everybody did their job but me."
"Not that it was a huge problem -- we still won the game," he said with a grin. "The streak was a good run though. I'll try to start another one tomorrow."
Maston is hitting .353 in 2062 with 48 RBIs and 12 home runs.
