| Breaking News |  | Friday, April 9th, 2055: Estrada's Hit Streak Over
All good things must come to an end -- and so it was today for José Estrada as he saw his 23-game hitting streak end. He went hitless in 4 at-bats at the hands of the Sharks. It wasn't all bad for the 24-year-old shortstop and the Lexington Midnight Riders, as they defeated Chattanooga 6-2 at Midnight Riders Ballpark.
When asked about his hitting streak, a smiling Estrada laughed and said, "I guess my luck ran out today."
Estrada is hitting .381 this season with no home runs, 1 RBIs and 2 runs scored. He has 8 hits in 21 at-bats.

 | Friday, September 4th, 2054: Glendale Wins Round 3!
The Jewelers earned their 1st Round 3 title and now get to spend all winter basking in glory, while the beaten Midnight Riders will have many sleepless nights wondering what went wrong.
Glendale is the TTBL Single A Champions for 2054. They did it with a 6-2 triumph to capture the series 4-3.
"Both clubs are talented. We just made fewer mistakes than they did," the winning manager said to the press corps at the postgame press conference. "We made the crucial plays and got the timely hits."
The Lexington skipper agreed with that assessment and added, "We were a little weak on fundamentals at crucial times. I have a sneaky suspicion we will be working on fundamentals a lot next spring."
On the way to the Round 3 championship, the Jewelers ended up in first place in the Federal League A Division 2 and compiled a 77-43 record during the regular season.
