Isotopes End Roberts Streak Saturday, July 3rd , 2055 Martin Roberts came rolling into today's game against the Albuquerque Isotopes with a 23-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Red Hot Stadium. The 23-year-old Mexico City Cerveceros first baseman went 0-for-4 against the Isotopes as the Cerveceros fell, 10-6. "I swung at a couple pitches I probably shouldn't have and I didn't swing at a couple I probably should have," he said, grimacing. "But that's what makes a hit streak so impressive in the first place -- it only takes a couple mistakes to end it all." So far this season, Roberts is hitting .366 with 25 home runs, 67 RBIs and 70 runs scored. He has 117 hits in 320 at-bats and a .435 OBP. |
