Rivera Hits in 20 Consecutive Games
Tuesday, September 13th , 2050
With 1 hit at Old-Timers Park today, Sergio Rivera added another game to his hitting streak -- the Northville right fielder has now hit safely for 20 games in a row. But the hitting feat wasn't enough for the Eclipse today, as they fell, 5-0, to the Casper Ghosts.
"Frankly, I don't care about hits," Casper manager Mesa Altuve said later. "I'll let him get 3 hits in 3 at-bats if it means we get a win." Sergio Rivera flied out in the 2nd, singled in the 5th and grounded out in the 8th.
This year Rivera has collected a .269 batting average to date with 43 hits in 160 at-bats, 15 RBIs, 1 home run and scored 11 times. He has played in 48 games.
