Kallio Hits in 20 Straight Games Wednesday, August 20th, 2031 The Idaho Falls Chukars may have proven to be mere mortals today as they lost 3-1 to the Grim Reapers, but Petri Kallio continued to hit like a god. The second baseman collected 1 hit in 4 at-bats in the loss and extended his hitting streak to 20 games. "Kallio is playing great and is on fire right now," Chukars manager Tim Nelson said. "Hopefully his play can spark the rest of our team and help us pick up some wins." Kallio was apparently not happy with the game and when pressed by reporters in the locker room only said "nothing else matters but the loss." Petri Kallio flied out in the 1st, singled in the 4th, struck out in the 6th and grounded out in the 8th. Kallio is hitting .277 this year with 8 home runs and 44 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .314, 14 walks and scored 42 times. |
