Cruz Hitless, Stopped by Tigers
Saturday, September 5th , 2048
Ezequiel Cruz's 22-game hitting streak has now come and gone. It was snapped today as the Nephi Threshers suffered a setback against the Detroit Tigers, 8-5.
Cruz went without a hit in 5 trips to the plate. He was visibly upset during a postgame press conference, but it appeared that the streak had little to do with it.
"The hitting streak was one of those things where it was fun while it lasted, but I'm not going to lose any sleep about it tonight," he said. "On the other hand, I am going to lose sleep about dropping this game today."
Cruz has a .321 average and a .390 on-base percentage for the year. He has picked up 111 hits, 14 home runs and driven in 49 runs.
