Nipper Extends Hit Streak to 25 Games Thursday, May 14th , 2054 Win or lose, Ed Nipper just keeps on getting base hits -- game after game after game. He picked up 1 more today and has now stretched his hitting streak to 25 games. The Newark Bulldogs second baseman went 1-for-4, but it wasn't enough to win the game. His club was defeated, 7-2, by the Frisco Rough Riders at The Dome. "It's amazing to watch him hit right now, but I don't think anybody's really mentioning it," one of his teammates said. "We just don't want to jinx him." Ed Nipper singled in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, struck out in the 5th and struck out in the 8th. Nipper is currently batting .413 with 18 home runs and 55 RBIs. |
