Marlins End Varitek's Streak Tuesday, September 2nd , 2003 The Florida Marlins got more than the 10-4 victory at Sunlife Stadium 1993-2011 today -- they also put an end to the 26-game hitting streak of Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Jason Varitek by holding him without a hit in 4 at-bats. After the game, Varitek seemed more concerned with his team taking the loss than with the demise of his streak. "I had some great looks at some pitches that I should have hit," he said. "I missed some that I shouldn't have swung at. All in all, I wasn't much help with the bat today." In 110 games this year Varitek has posted a .293 average and put up these numbers: 27 home runs, 78 RBIs and 89 runs scored. |
