Sikes Hitless, Streak Ends at 22
Sunday, April 4th , 2021
Villa Park High School triumphed over American Heritage High School, but that was only one of the headlines from the game -- Spartans second baseman Matt Sikes failed to get a hit in the 11-0 win, bringing his 22-game hitting streak to an abrupt end.
"I carried the club a few times over the past couple weeks, but today they carried me," he told reporters in his postgame remarks. "No matter what else happens, it is always good to win a ballgame."
This season, Sikes is swinging the bat at a .327 pace. He has hit 3 home runs and scored 10 times, while driving in 15. His on-base percentage is .452 and he has played in 14 games.
