Rodríguez on a Rampage, Hits for Cycle Friday, September 3rd, 2038 Requiring speed, power and regular contact, the cycle is often seen as a test of a complete hitter. For Danny Rodríguez, consider that test passed. The 22-year-old left fielder hit for the cycle at Goodyear Hanger Dome today to lead the Akron Blimps to a 8-3 win over the Durham Rapiers. All told, Rodríguez delivered 4 hits in 4 at-bats with 2 runs batted in and 3 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." Danny Rodríguez hit an RBI triple in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Héctor Marroquín in the 7th. This season Rodríguez is batting .276 with 14 home runs. His totals include 30 RBIs and 28 runs scored. View Boxscore View Game Log |
