Slow Put in Cooler, Hitless Against Death Valley Saturday, June 14th , 2081 Late in the game, all eyes in Cari Price Memorial Stadium were on Bazooka Slow as he stepped into the batter box. His 21-game hitting streak was on the line, and he had a zero in the hit column on the day. Sadly for Slow, it was not meant to be -- the zero would stay and the streak would end. If there was a silver lining for Slow, it was that his Outer Banks Aviators won the game anyway, stopping the Death Valley Scorpions by the score of 9-2. "Winning took some of the disappointment out of it," Slow told reporters in the clubhouse. "Looking back on it, it was a great experience. Not too many players can say they had a hit in 21 straight games. It's something I will always remember." So far this year, Slow is batting .309 with 1 home run and 19 RBIs. |
