WOW! So in my fantasy drafted Twins season mode, I just hit for the cycle! With....PABLO SANDOVAL!
How it happened....
Triple : Pablo's first at bat was when he received the triple. Hit a line drive into center field, the center fielder dove and it went right under him.
Single : Just a ground ball up the middle to reach 1st base safely.
Home Run : This was crucial. I was down 3-1 in the 5th inning, 2 men were on base. I guessed pitch to a low fastball (yes I know I use guess pitch, so what.) And I guessed it right on, so I used a power swing...thing was BLASTED right off of the bat. Put me up 4-3 in the game and my team never looked back!
Double : This was in the 8th inning. I was talking to my friend on facebook chat and I told him, 'Dude if I get a double with Sandoval right now, I'll hit for the cycle'. He was full of doubt, until I started typing 'OMFG DUDE I HIT A DOUBLE! I GOT THE CYCLE!!!' Lol, I was really excited; this was my biggest achievement so far in playing this game. The double was pulled right over the first basemen's head into right field, and Sandoval slid into 2nd, saluted the cheering crowd, and then Matty boy mentioned it.
I nearly picked up my first cycle last night with Andruw Jones at the Rogers Center. I went Home Run, Triple, Double, but couldn't get the single, we even went into the 13th but he ended up going 3 for 5 with a walk. My last at bat with him I ended up striking out.
Quite Frustrating, though I ended up winning the game, so it wasn't all bad.
