 | Mountain Pointe HS End Rocha's Streak Friday, May 4th, 2029 José Rocha came rolling into today's game against the Mountain Pointe HS with a 24-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Ballpark of Sterling HS. The 18-year-old Jeffersonville-Youngsville Central HS Trojans second baseman went 0-for-5 against the Mountain Pointe HS as the Trojans fell, 5-1. "I swung at a couple pitches I probably shouldn't have and I didn't swing at a couple I probably should have," he said, grimacing. "But that's what makes a hit streak so impressive in the first place -- it only takes a couple mistakes to end it all." This year Rocha is batting .354 with 5 home runs and 29 RBIs. In 31 games he has scored 35 times. |   |
