Fire Frogs End Brantly's Streak Saturday, September 1st, 2018 Rob Brantly, catcher for the Lake Elsinore Storm, gave it a good try, but his time chasing history came to an end when he went hitless in 4 tries against the Florida Fire Frogs today. Not only did the Fire Frogs break his 20-game hitting streak, they also beat Lake Elsinore by the score of 9-1. "Now that the streak has ended, I can admit I'll breathe a bit easier the next time I step up to bat," Brantly said, speaking with the media after the game. "It was tough because I put a little pressure on myself. Now that it's over, I will definitely be a little bit looser at the plate." This year Brantly has socked 151 hits in 435 at-bats for a .347 average with 20 home runs. He is getting on base at a .434 pace and his totals also include 94 RBIs and 68 runs scored. |
