| Grimes's 22-Game Hitting Streak Ends Sunday, February 27th, 1972 After 22 games, Josh Grimes had his hitting streak ended abruptly today by the Boston College Eagles at Rogues Ballpark. The North Carolina Tar Heels third baseman failed to get a hit in 4 at-bats, bringing his tenure in the national spotlight to a halt.
Despite the tough day at the plate, Grimes seemed unconcerned after the game, talking instead about the Tar Heels taking a 4-3 victory from the Eagles.
"It was good while it lasted," Grimes said. "If it had to end, I'm glad it ended with a victory."
So far this season Grimes has gotten 46 hits in 116 at-bats for a .397 batting average with 9 home runs. His stats include 36 RBIs and 20 runs scored. He has played in 28 games. | |
