Broncs End Groh's Streak Friday, June 29th , 1962 Billy Groh came rolling into today's game against the Lewiston Broncs with a 20-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Lewiston ID minor league park. The 20-year-old Salem Senators right fielder went 0-for-2 against the Broncs as the Senators fell, 7-2. "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." Currently Groh is hitting .332 and has collected 13 home runs, 38 RBIs and scored 59 times, while playing in 67 games. |
