Cardinals End Richardson Streak Monday, August 18th , 2110 Jaylin Richardson came rolling into today's game against the St. Louis (GCL) Cardinals with a 24-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Ballpark of Belvedere. The 25-year-old Houston (GCL) Astros center fielder went 0-for-4 against the Cardinals as the Astros fell, 5-3. "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 year, Richardson is hitting .361 with 3 home runs and 16 RBIs to his credit. He has gotten on base at a .429 clip and scored 39 runs. |
