Snider Hit String Snapped at 26 Wednesday, July 14th, 1982 All good things must come to an end -- and so it was today for Van Snider as he saw his 26-game hitting streak end. He went hitless in 3 at-bats at the hands of the Port Arthur Pirates. It wasn't all bad for the 18-year-old right fielder and the Galveston Sand Crabs however, as they defeated Port Arthur 4-3 at Pirate City Park. When asked about his hitting streak, a smiling Snider laughed and said, "I guess my luck ran out today." On the year Snider has hit .345 with 10 home runs, 28 RBIs and scored 24 runs. |
