Roberts Boosts Hit Streak to 20 Games
Friday, July 6th, 2063
The Vermont Lake Monsters may have proven to be mere mortals today as they lost 9-5 to the Washington Monuments, but Clarence Roberts continued to hit like a god.

The second baseman collected 1 hit in 5 at-bats in the loss and extended his hitting streak to 20 games.

"Roberts is playing great and is on fire right now," Lake Monsters manager Kevin Tucker said. "Hopefully his play can spark the rest of our team and help us pick up some wins."

Roberts was apparently not happy with the game and when pressed by reporters in the locker room only said "nothing else matters but the loss."
Clarence Roberts flied out in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Chad Smith in the 4th, flied out in the 5th, flied out in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.

This year Roberts is batting .347 with 5 home runs. He has scored 25 runs and driven in 30.
