Patrick Hits for the Cycle Monday, March 20th, 2034 Getting 4 hits in a game is no easy feat, but doing it to hit for the cycle is even more rare. Giovanni Patrick of the Fresno State Bulldogs pulled it off today at Brooks College Grounds, going 4-for-5 against the Texas A&M Aggies. His batting escapades sparked the Bulldogs to a 11-6 victory. Patrick tallied 2 runs and drove in 3 during the game. Hitting for the cycle is particularly rare because of the different skills required - enough power for a home run, enough speed for a triple and enough patience at the plate to see at least four hittable balls. "It just happened," Patrick said to reporters after the win. "Must have been fate or something, I wasn't expecting it. Heck, I wasn't even really trying for it." Giovanni Patrick tripled in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 5th and hit a three-run home run off Lance Rosenfeld in the 6th. View Boxscore View Game Log |
