Angels End Roberts's Streak Tuesday, June 4th , 2047 Kelowna right fielder Ryan Roberts came into today's game against the Portland Angels on a hot streak. He left on a cold one. The Angels did their jobs well, beating the Kelowna Heat 8-2 and holding Roberts hitless to snap his 28-game hitting streak. The 20-year-old right fielder had a few words to say after finishing 0-for-4, telling reporters only that he "came up short." "What Ryan did was exciting and quite an achievement," said Heat manager Ian Beeching. "It's tough enough to get one hit in this league, much less go 28 games in a row. I'm even more proud of the way he handled the press coverage. He never let the frenzy get to him or affect his play." This year Roberts is hitting at a .348 pace with 2 home runs and 6 RBIs. He has played in 13 games and scored 11 times. |
