Giants Stop Hornsby at 33
Saturday, August 19th , 1916
The Chicago American Giants clamped down on Rogers Hornsby and put a stop to his hit streak. He went without a hit, ending the run at 33 straight games, but it didn't keep the Cardinals from winning. St. Louis downed the Giants, 6-1.
"It was bound to happen," Hornsby said with a shrug after the game.
Currently Hornsby is batting .358 with 6 home runs, 62 RBIs and 79 runs scored.
