 | Pirates End Finigan's Streak Tuesday, August 16th, 2005 The 21-game hitting streak of Delta Theta Phi Keggers second baseman Jim Finigan came to an end today at Centerburg Grounds. The Wading River Pirates held him hitless in 3 at-bats and also sent the Keggers down to defeat, 4-3. Later, Finigan 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." So far this season Finigan has put up a .363 batting average with 133 hits, 8 home runs and 57 RBIs. |   |
