Milwaukee Brewers’ Christian Yelich becomes sixth player in MLB history to hit for three cycles in career

The Milwaukee Brewers’ Christian Yelich joined an exclusive club Wednesday, hitting for the third cycle of his career during a 14-11 loss to the Cincinnati Reds.

All three of Yelich’s cycles have come against the Reds, who have allowed 20 cycles in their history, second most to the St. Louis Cardinals (24) all time. Yelich, 30, is the first player to hit three cycles against a single team.

“I’d definitely rather win the game,” Yelich said. “Weird things happen in baseball. Anytime you can hit for a cycle, it’s pretty cool. I will try to enjoy it as much as possible.”

Yelich, who was the Brewers’ designated hitter on Wednesday, tripled in the top of the ninth inning — during a six-run rally — to complete his latest cycle after hitting a ground-rule double in the top of the first, a 372-foot home run in the top of the third and a single in the top of the fifth. He finished the game 4-for-5 with three RBIs and two runs scored.

Yelich’s other two cycles against the Reds both came during the 2018 season, after which he was named the National League’s Most Valuable Player.

“A lot of things kind of have to happen to hit the cycle,” Yelich said. San Francisco 49ers Jersey  “It is hard enough to get four hits in a major league game, and to have the right kind, there’s an element of luck. It is still pretty cool.”
