Great Day for Machacek, Hits for Cycle
Saturday, June 4th , 2078
It is rare for players to collect a single, double, triple and home run in one game, so it's a special moment when it happens.
Mike Machacek savored such a moment, going 4-for-5 and hitting for the cycle against the Saint Petersburg Red Wings. Unfortunately for Machacek, that was all he could savor, as his Quahog Players lost the contest by a score of 9-8.
After the game, the first baseman was in no mood to talk about the hitting feat, calling it "pointless trivia."
"Nobody cares if I went 0-for-5 or 1-for-5 or 4-for-5," Machacek said. "9-8. That's the only line anyone around here cares about today."
Mike Machacek hit a solo-shot off Jose Madrid in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, tripled in the 6th, hit a two-run double in the 6th, walked in the 8th and struck out in the 10th.
So far in 2078 Machacek is batting .373 with 3 home runs, 7 RBIs and 14 runs scored. He has 22 hits in 59 at-bats and a .471 OBP.
