Valdez on a Tear, Hits for Cycle
Requiring speed, power, and regular contact, the cycle is often seen as a test of a complete hitter. For Edgar Valdez, consider that test passed.

The 20-year-old shortstop hit for the cycle at The Lair at Sabercat Field, to help the Sedona Sabercats triumph, 9-1, over the Wichita Storm. All told, Valdez delivered 4 hits in 4 at-bats with 6 runs batted in and 2 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."

Edgar Valdez doubled in the 2nd, hit a three-run triple in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Dave Zapata in the 5th, walked in a run in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

This year, Valdez is hitting .379 with 4 home runs and 22 RBIs to his credit. He has gotten on base at a .462 clip and scored 19 runs.
