On a Roll: Acuna Hits for Cycle
Tuesday, May 31st , 2078
Salvador Acuna punished the Anchorage Longbows, leading the Seafarers to a win, 10-1. In doing so, Acuna hit for the cycle, tagging the Longbows for 4 hits in 5 at-bats.
A player hitting a single, a double, a triple and a home run in the same game is one of the more unusual feats in professional baseball and typically happens only a couple times per season.
"Well, I didn't expect that to happen," the Nevada second baseman said after the game. "I got some great pitches and I hit their mistakes."
Acuna also had 4 RBI and 3 runs scored in the game at Anchorage Grounds.
Salvador Acuna hit an RBI double in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Steve Sanchez in the 3rd, hit a two-run triple in the 5th, grounded out in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
Thus far this year, Acuna is batting .250 with 5 home runs, 15 RBIs and 20 runs scored.
