Hit Streak Now at 20 for Hilfiker
Tuesday, June 19th, 2035
Win or lose, Lauren Hilfiker just keeps on getting base hits -- game after game after game. He picked up 1 more today and has now stretched his hitting streak to 20 games.
The Winter Haven Sun Sox first baseman went 1-for-5 today, but it wasn't enough to win the game. His club was defeated 4-3 by the Crowley Cajuns at Titans Ballpark.
"It's amazing to watch him hit right now, but I don't think anybody's really mentioning it," one of his teammates said. "We just don't want to jinx him." Lauren Hilfiker hit a solo-shot off Rens Verheijen in the 2nd, grounded out in the 4th, walked in the 6th, struck out in the 8th, struck out in the 11th and struck out in the 14th.
Hilfiker is swinging at a .373 pace on the year with 4 home runs, 13 RBIs and 10 runs scored. He has played in 15 games.
