Ood Snap Ayyad's Streak at 20
Wednesday, July 26th, 1939
For 20 straight games, Kateb Ayyad tried to ignore his hitting streak. It wasn't easy.
Well, the 24-year-old Resistencia Dolphins third baseman can forget about it now -- it's over, courtesy of the Quezon City Ood. The Ood held him hitless in 1 at-bat at Dolphins Ballpark today and snapped his consecutive-game hitting string at 20.
There was at least one good note to the end of the streak, however, as the Dolphins took the win by the score of 4-3.
"I tried to ignore it for weeks, but you guys in the media wouldn't let me," he joked with reporters after the game. "I'm looking forward to some peace and quiet now."
So far this year, Ayyad is batting .244 with 4 home runs and 52 RBIs.
