Down the Dorsal: Luis Arraez Made Hitting for the Cycle Look So Easy
Luis Arraez is raking like a groundskeeper in October. His first month as a Miami Marlin couldn’t have gone any better!
Who could forget Philadelphia, April 11?
Arraez, up to his usual antics, lines an easy double to right-center in the first inning. Then in the sixth, he takes a cutter at the top of the zone and bloops it to right for a triple. That’s a pretty good game for anybody.
But when he comes up in the seventh, Arraez hits an outside fastball over the wall in left, leaving him just a single shy of the first cycle in Marlins history.
With the entire world tuned in, Arraez accomplished the feat in the eighth.
