Hyman's Hit Streak Reaches 20 Games
Friday, April 24th, 1970
The Wilson HS Rays stopped the Gulfport HS Cougars today 17-5 and Erik Hyman collected a base hit yet again. The Wilson HS left fielder finished with 3 hits to run his consecutive-game hitting streak to 20.
"I want to get a hit every time up," a visibly excited Hyman told reporters after the contest. "I want to get a hit every game I play. Right now, I feel like I could take this streak to 100 games." Erik Hyman singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, walked in the 3rd, walked in the 5th, grounded out in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
Hyman has collected 38 hits for the Rays this year, 5 of them home runs. He has also netted 28 RBIs and scored 32 runs while batting .500.
