Bobby Witt Jr. Extends Hitting Streak To 22 Games With Homer
Bobby Witt Jr. extended his career-best hitting streak to 22 games on Thursday by going 1-for-3 with his third home run of the season, three RBI, two walks and a strikeout in an 8-2 win to seal the series sweep over the Tampa Bay Rays. Witt's home run was to the opposite field off of starter Shane Baz to extend the team's lead. The 24-year-old All-Star is one of the best all-around players in the game and is certainly proving it early on in 2025. He's now hitting .322 on the season with an .896 OPS, .400 on-base percentage, 15 RBI, 20 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 140 plate appearances. Witt and the Royals will now head to Baltimore to face the Orioles for a three-game series starting on Friday. He will be up against right-hander Dean Kremer as he looks to extend his impressive hitting streak to 23 games.
