Saboteurs Chill Vélez's Hot Streak
Tuesday, August 12th, 2042
The Toledo Saboteurs got more than the 12-4 victory at Field of Plenty today -- they also put an end to the 27-game hitting streak of Providence Pilgrims second baseman Julián Vélez by holding him without a hit in 3 at-bats.
After the game, Vélez seemed more concerned with his team taking the loss than with the demise of his streak.
"I had some great looks at some pitches that I should have hit," he said. "I missed some that I shouldn't have swung at. All in all, I wasn't much help with the bat today."
This season Vélez has hit at a .271 clip with 19 RBIs, 4 home runs and 26 runs scored.
