Super Troopers End Futrell Streak Tuesday, August 18th , 2026 Jake Futrell came rolling into today's game against the Santa Barbara Super Troopers with a 22-game hitting string, but he left it on the field at Fighting Knights Field. The 20-year-old Niskayuna Fighting Knights first baseman went 0-for-5 against the Super Troopers as the Fighting Knights fell, 5-1. "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, Futrell is hitting .341 with 59 hits, 7 home runs, 43 RBIs and has scored 31 runs. |
