 | Wednesday, August 13th, 2014: 25-Game Hitting Streak for Fulton
Quezon City's 22-year-old first baseman Jack Fulton has had a fine run at the plate over the last few weeks. His consecutive-game hitting streak has reached 25 games now. Today Fulton extended the streak by going 2-4 against Knights pitching. The streak has brought him a degree of attention that he has tried to deflect. Fulton always prefers to talk about his teammates' accomplishments rather than his own. After the Pearls 5-4 triumph over Mount Prospect at Pearls Ballpark he downplayed his part in the victory.
J. Fulton grounded out in the 1st, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and flied out in the 8th.
In 2014 Fulton is batting .371 with 5 home runs.

 | Sunday, August 10th, 2014: An Hot, Knights Cold
The Mount Prospect Knights struggled at the plate today against Swing hurler Hsin An, who shackled them on 3 hits while hurling a complete game 6-0 shutout.
"What can you say? We didn't hit well," said the Knights skipper in his postgame comments.
"Hopefully we shake this off and bounce back tomorrow."
An finished the game with 8 strikeouts and no walks in an excellent mound performance.
"He pitched real well," his manager said. "Hsin made pitches when he had to. He hit his spots and did a great job of mixing in his changeup and using his fastball effectively."
This year An has compiled a 10-9 mark with a 4.11 ERA in 24 starts.
