Morales on a Rampage, Hits for Cycle
It is rare for players to collect a single, double, triple and home run in one game, so it's a special moment when it happens.

Antonio Morales savored such a moment, going 4-for-4 and hitting for the cycle against the Los Angeles Pobladores. Unfortunately for Morales, that was all he could savor, as his Twin Cities Northmen lost the contest by a score of 7-4.

After the game, the first baseman was in no mood to talk about the hitting feat, calling it "pointless trivia."

"Nobody cares if I went 0-for-4 or 1-for-4 or 4-for-4," Morales said. "7-4. That's the only line anyone around here cares about today."

Antonio Morales hit a three-run home run off Phil Lester in the 1st, tripled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

This year, Morales is hitting .250 with 72 hits, 4 home runs, 33 RBIs and has scored 25 runs.
