Nomads End Arteaga Streak Tuesday, May 10th , 2072 The 22-game hitting streak of Jasper Mom & Pops third baseman Nelson Arteaga came to an end at Ballpark of Saint Petersburg. The Nebraska Nomads held him hitless in 4 at-bats and also sent the Mom & Pops down to defeat, 5-1. Later, Arteaga acknowledged to BNN reporters that the hit streak meant something to him. "It was special," he said, "but I think other people make a bigger deal out of it than I do, or the players do. It was what we're all supposed to do; go out and hit the ball and try to score runs. It was a cool deal, but it's over now. Let's try to start a new one." This season, Arteaga is batting .374 with 3 home runs. He has scored 18 runs and driven in 17. |
