Beard Keeps Hit Streak Alive Friday, August 29th, 2025 And the hits just keep on coming -- especially off the red-hot bat of Keith Beard. The Cards center fielder got 1 hit in 5 at-bats in today's 14-4 triumph over the Vista Panthers at The Kallipolis. Beard has now hit safely in his last 20 games. Asked by the press, how it feels to go through something like this, he replied, "the longer it goes on, the more the pressure intensifies. The press coverage can get relentless at times. I wish I could just go out and play the game without all this distraction, but I know that's not going to happen. I know I will just have to grin and bear it." Keith Beard singled in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, grounded out in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th and grounded out in the 7th. In his stats this season, Beard has posted a batting average of .314 with 129 hits in 411 at-bats, 1 home run and 53 RBIs. He has also scored 64 runs, walked 58 times and compiled a .401 OBP. |
