Nunez Put in Cooler, Hitless Against Columbia
Friday, August 20th , 2049
The 20-game hitting streak of Pensacola Blue Wahoos first baseman Jose Nunez came to an end today at Spirit Communications Park. The Columbia Fireflies held him hitless in 5 at-bats and also sent the Blue Wahoos down to defeat, 3-2.
Later, Nunez 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."
So far this season Nunez has hit .250 with 10 home runs, 50 RBIs and scored 49 times.
