Osborn Goes Cycling
Saturday, May 17th, 2014
"It's too bad I can't do that every day," Bob Osborn said with a smile to reporters after today's game. "It would do wonders for my batting average." Osborn had every right to be in a good mood after hitting for the cycle today against Leningrad at Bulldog Stadium. The Aeropostales won the ballgame 13-4, he hit for the cycle, had a 4-for-4 game and boosted his batting average up a few points. The 25-year-old Indian Wells center fielder chalked up 6 runs batted in and 3 runs scored for the game, too.
Who says you can't have it all?
He told the press that a triple is the tough hit to get in a cycle. "As soon as it left the bat, guys jumped off the bench and were rooting hard for me to have enough gas to get there," Osborn said. "It was hard to enjoy it... I was breathing too hard... you got to really be in shape to run out a triple."
Bob Osborn hit a two-run home run off Nelson Berroa in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th and hit a two-run triple in the 6th.
Thus far this year Osborn has hit .311 with 5 home runs and 15 RBIs.
