 | *the Indefatiguable Touches All the Bases, Hits for Cycle Friday, August 30th, 2019: Hitting for the cycle is defined as hitting a single, double, triple and home run in the same game. How often does that happen? Not very often, especially considering that a cycle is a microcosm of what makes a complete hitter -- he must possess power (homer), speed (triple) and make regular contact (four hits).
Well, Sarukh *the Indefatiguable is a complete hitter -- at least for one ballgame. Today at Uruk-hai Field he hit for the cycle to lead Dead Marshes Uruk-hai to a 11-5 win over the Lake Town Archers. All told in the game *the Indefatiguable delivered 4 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 run batted in and 3 runs scored.
He admitted to the press in the postgame interview, "Lotta luck in hitting for the cycle. Several unique things have to come together... all in the same game."
S. *the Indefatiguable tripled in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off E. Mayes in the 3rd, grounded out in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
*the Indefatiguable is presently hitting at a .337 pace with 32 home runs and 87 RBIs. He has played in 128 games and scored 100 times. | |
