Schooners Chill Shakelady's Hot Streak
Saturday, July 27th, 1991
The Virginia Beach Schooners got more than the 12-5 victory at Schooners Ballpark today -- they also put an end to the 22-game hitting streak of Glade Spring Diamond Cats third baseman Cameron Shakelady by holding him without a hit in 5 at-bats.
After the game, Shakelady seemed more concerned with his team taking the loss than with the demise of his streak.
"I had some great looks at some pitches that I should have hit," he said. "I missed some that I shouldn't have swung at. All in all, I wasn't much help with the bat today."
In the current season, Shakelady has put up a .372 batting average with 165 hits, 13 home runs, 85 runs batted in and scored 104 runs.
