Phalanx End La Stella's Streak Friday, July 16th, 2021 The 28-game hitting streak of San Diego Matadors second baseman Tommy La Stella came to an end today at The Fortress. The Philadelphia Phalanx held him hitless in 3 at-bats and also sent the Matadors down to defeat, 5-0. Later, La Stella acknowledged to BNN reporters that the hit streak meant something to him. "It was special," he said, "but I think other people make a bigger deal out of it than I do, or the players do. It was what we're all supposed to do; go out and hit the ball and try to score runs. It was a cool deal, but it's over now. Let's try to start a new one." This year La Stella is batting .339 with 127 hits and 17 home runs. He has scored 55 times and has batted in 56 runs. |
