Missed Cycle...

Oh you!!
You clicked here because you thought I was making an announcement.
You did, didn't you?
Ummmm, sorry to disappoint but NO!


Well actually yes, we are making an announcement.
But not the kind you are thinking.
It's about Tyson's missed cycle here!


In baseball you can
"Hit for The Cycle"
which means you hit a homerun, a triple, a double and a single ... all in the same game. It's rare.
Many players go through their whole career and never do it.

Monday night Ty missed it by a SINGLE!!
(go ahead, let out a moan)
He was intentionally walked on his last up to bat. However, we were so excited!! Funny how ALMOST doing something fabulous can be so much fun.

Way to go TYSON!


Deseret News:
GRANTSVILLE 16, UINTAH 4: Tyson Hutchins nearly hit for the cycle, as he hit a double, triple and a home run and had six RBIs for Grantsville.

Tooele Transcript Bulletin:
After just three innings, Grantsville jumped out to a 10-0 lead against Uintah and held on to beat the Utes 16-4 to stave off elimination. Tyson Hutchins had a spectacular day at the plate by hitting a perfect 3-for-3 and barely missing out on batting for the cycle. Hutchins belted a home run, triple and a double while drawing two walks and even batted in six runs.
