Llaneras Goes Hitless, Streak Stopped at 20
Monday, April 10th , 2051
His run was over, but a Markesan HS victory took some of the disappointment out of Chris Llaneras losing his 20-game hitting streak. The 16-year-old second baseman did not get a hit in 2 at-bats, but the Gaels whipped the Quebec City HS Nordiques 24-0 today at Gaels Stadium.
"I did it on purpose just to get you all off my back," Llaneras joked with reporters. "You're going to put in your stories that I said this as a joke, but what if it wasn't?"
This year Llaneras is batting .342 with no home runs and 4 RBIs. In 10 games he has scored 11 times.
