Great Day for Puga, Hits for Cycle Thursday, July 12th , 2085 Requiring speed, power, and regular contact, the cycle is often seen as a test of a complete hitter. For Jose Puga, consider that test passed. The 23-year-old center fielder hit for the cycle at Mountain Dew Park, to help the Buffalo Rangers triumph, 5-4, over the Denver Glaciers. All told, Puga delivered 4 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 RBI and 3 runs scored. "It feels good of course, but I'm not going to kid anyone -- there's a lot of luck in hitting for the cycle," he said after the game. "Several unique things have to come together all in the same game." Jose Puga hit a solo-shot off Edwin Munoz in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, tripled in the 8th and flied out in the 9th. So far this season, Puga is hitting .300 with 12 home runs, 54 RBIs and 49 runs scored. He has 94 hits in 313 at-bats and a .379 OBP. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
