Francoeur's Streak Snapped

POSTED: 12:04 am EDT May 21, 2008

(Sports Network) - Atlanta Braves outfielder Jeff Francoeur had his streak of 370 consecutive games play broken Tuesday night when he was held out of the lineup for the nightcap of a doubleheader against the New York Mets.

Francoeur, who began his streak of games on October 1, 2005, is batting .258 with three homers and 26 RBI this season. He is mired in a 1-for-14 slump, going hitless in three at-bats with a walk during Atlanta's 6-1 victory in the day contest versus the Mets. He sat out the Braves' 6-2 win in the nightcap.
