On August 8th, the Vancouver Canadians wrapped up a six-game “home” series against the Hillsboro Hops at Ron Tonkin Field . C’s first baseman Spencer Horwitz went 0-for-4, his third hitless game of a series. He finished 2-for-19 with one walk against six strikeouts. In fact, after jumping out to a robust .318/.521/.455 start in May, Horwitz had been struggling badly, hitting just .209/.294/.296 over the ensuing ten weeks.
Just over a month before, on a Sunday, was the last time Horwitz failed to get a hit in a game. Horwitz started every game the following week in Everett, recording a hit, a walk in each, and three multi-hit games. He started the series against Tri-City with a pair of four-hit games and kept it up back in Hillsboro and then again back in Everett. That made for four straight six-game series with hits, a 24-game hitting streak.
Vancouver was re-classified to the advanced-A level in this off-season’s minor league reorganization, having previously been a short-season team in the Northwest League. The slightly shrunken and unimaginatively named High-A West league is the successor to the NWL, with its record book carrying over and the record for longest hitting streak having stood since 1962 at 26 games.
