Gaels End Garafola's Streak
It was the best of both worlds for the <Markesan HS Gaels:team#139> today at Austin HS Fields, as they defeated the <Austin HS Anteaters:team#157> 3-2 and also snapped <Jason Garafola:player#7343>'s 20-game hitting streak. The 15-year-old Austin HS shortstop failed to get a hit in 3 at-bats.

"Nothing personal against Garafola, we just wanted to win the game," said Gaels skipper  . "We did a great job keeping him off-balance and guessing."

When asked by reporters about his streak coming to an end, Garafola frowned and said, "I won't lie and say that I'm not disappointed about it, but I'd feel much better if we had won."

In the current season, <Garafola:player#7343> has put up a .341 batting average with 29 hits, no home runs, 16 RBI and scored 9 runs.
