Wright Hit Streak Over
Tuesday, April 20th , 2055
Fred Wright, first baseman for the Loomis Chaffee Pelicans, gave it a good try, but his time chasing history came to an end when he went hitless in 2 tries against the Richardson HS Eagles. Not only did the Eagles break his 21-game hitting streak, they also beat Loomis Chaffee by the score of 6-0.
"Now that the streak has ended, I can admit I'll breathe a bit easier the next time I step up to bat," Wright said, speaking with the media after the game. "It was tough because I put a little pressure on myself. Now that it's over, I will definitely be a little bit looser at the plate."
At present, Wright is batting .457 with 42 hits and 12 home runs. He has knocked in 26 runs and scored 25 times.
