Gomez Has 20-Game Hitting Streak
Monday, July 21st, 1997
Chris Gomez has been ripping hits every day for a while now, and nobody seems able to stop him. The Jacksonville second baseman picked up 1 more today against the Columbus Clippers and now has a 20-game hitting streak. The Suns won the game 4-2.
"Definitely somebody's going to stop me at some point," he said later, chuckling. "I'll enjoy it for the time being." Chris Gomez flied out in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, flied out in the 4th, flied out in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
This year Gomez has collected a .362 batting average to date with 153 hits in 423 at-bats, 47 RBIs, 11 home runs and scored 82 times. He has played in 99 games.
