Riverside Halts Valenta's Hitting Steak
Sunday, May 24th , 2026
Haviland triumphed over Riverside, but that was only one of the headlines from the game -- Thrashers first baseman Bryan Valenta failed to get a hit in the 8-7 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, Valenta is hitting at a .435 pace with 19 home runs, 62 RBIs and has scored 53 times.
