Erasmus Hits in 20 Consecutive Games Tuesday, July 31st , 2063 Win or lose, Chima Erasmus 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 20 games. The Hampton Orioles left fielder went 1-for-4, but it wasn't enough to win the game. His club was defeated, 16-8, by the Raleigh Cubs at Ballpark of Raleigh. "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." Chima Erasmus struck out in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, singled in the 5th and flied out in the 7th. Thus far this year, Erasmus is hitting .351 with 5 home runs, 19 RBIs and 16 runs scored. |
