| No Hits for Gosnell, Streak Ends at 31 Friday, September 11th , 1896 The Waco Drummers got more than the 6-2 victory at Chisholm Grounds -- they also put an end to the 31-game hitting streak of San Antonio Vaqueros catcher Milton Gosnell by holding him without a hit in 4 at-bats.
After the game, Gosnell 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."
This year, Gosnell has hit at a .407 clip with 196 hits, no home runs, 65 RBIs and 135 runs scored. | | |
