Twin Towers End Hinkle's Streak Monday, September 26th , 2044 Ty Hinkle came rolling into today's game against the New York Twin Towers with a 22-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at New Hilltop Park. The 28-year-old Ontario Blue Pirates third baseman went 0-for-5 against the Twin Towers as the Blue Pirates fell, 5-3. "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." This season Hinkle is batting .324 with 177 hits, 3 home runs, 41 RBIs, 28 walks, .356 OBP and has scored 72 runs. He has played in 130 games. |
