Rosales Big Deal in Ocean City: Hits for Cycle
<Jorge Rosales:player#11947> of the <Ocean City Crabpots:team#25> touched all the bases today at Crabpots Field in the 19-13 victory over <Cooperstown:team#36>, hitting for the cycle.

He teed off on Greats pitching, collecting 1 single, 1 double, 1 triple and 1 home run. The feat is rare in baseball as it requires a game of no fewer than four hits and the unusual combination of a home run, which requires a batter to hit for some power -- and a triple, which requires a batter to have both speed and a favorable fall of the ball.

"The hardest part was the triple," Rosales confessed after the game. "A lot has to go right. It's real easy to get greedy trying to stretch a double and get thrown out. It's really hard to get a three-bagger."

He finished the big day with 4 hits in 6 at-bats, 8 RBI, 2 runs scored -- and a place in the record books.

<Jorge Rosales:player#11947> hit a three-run home run off <Doug Garland:player#3691> in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, flied out in the 4th, hit a two-run triple in the 5th, grounded out in the 7th and hit a two-run double in the 8th.

This year <Rosales:player#11947> has hit at a .267 clip with 15 RBIs, 1 home run and 16 runs scored.
