Recent expansion

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. – T M F 16:32, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

The lead says he played eight baseball seasons with Minor League Baseball. The first paragraph of Minor League career says nine baseball seasons

Fixed -- RyRy (talk) 18:36, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In 1999, he was signed to the Cincinnati Reds organization as a non-drafted free agent on July 11, and made his professional debut playing in 33 games with the Gulf Coast Reds and two games with the Single-A Clinton LumberKings. --> Say "On July 11, 1999" Split sentences because right now it's a run-on.

Done -- RyRy (talk) 18:36, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He ranked fourth in hits with 88 with 88 what? tissues? notebooks? children?
