Jets End Malone Streak Friday, August 23rd , 2058 Alan Malone came rolling into today's game against the Kennesaw Jets with a 26-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at The Ballpark on the Beach. The 25-year-old South Beach Blaze center fielder went 0-for-4 against the Jets as the Blaze fell, 4-2. "I swung at a couple pitches I probably shouldn't have and I didn't swing at a couple I probably should have," he said, grimacing. "But that's what makes a hit streak so impressive in the first place -- it only takes a couple mistakes to end it all." This season, Malone is batting .319 with 94 hits, 15 home runs, 58 RBIs, 19 walks, .369 OBP and has scored 43 runs. He has played in 73 games. |
