Krakow Snaps Gorishnev Streak at 27 Thursday, May 25th , 2056 For 27 straight games, Danya Gorishnev tried to ignore his hitting streak. It wasn't easy. Well, the 26-year-old Vienna Sausages catcher can forget about it now -- it's over, courtesy of the Krakow Lions. The Lions held him hitless in 1 at-bat at Wierzynek Park and snapped his consecutive-game hitting string at 27. There was at least one good note to the end of the streak, however, as the Sausages took the win by the score of 4-3. "I tried to ignore it for weeks, but you guys in the media wouldn't let me," he joked with reporters after the game. "I'm looking forward to some peace and quiet now." Gorishnev has a .311 average and a .370 on-base percentage for the year. He has picked up 47 hits, 8 home runs and driven in 19 runs. |
