Recent expansion
[edit]For some reason, whoever expanded the article removed all mention of his 24-game hitting streak for Rochester earlier this season. I'd add it back but the {{inuse}} tag is still on the article.
Reference 3 also does nothing to support the suspension claim and the mention of an 18-game hitting streak is sourced by an article that was written during the streak. – TMF 16:32, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
- Done. I've removed the inuse tag so you are free to edit the article now. I don't know if I removed that part or now, but if I did, you are free to add it back. And about reference three, you may fix it. -- RyRy (talk) 17:03, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hm, actually, it is in the article if you mean " From June 22 to July 19 of that season, Ruiz had a hit in 24 consecutive games. The hitting streak was the longest by a Rochester Red Wing player since 1979, when the team began keeping daily statistics for individual players.". It's within the last paragraph of the "Minor League career" section. -- RyRy (talk) 17:15, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
