Sunday, June 28th, 1998: Florida's Dmitri Young accomplished what few others have been able to do -- he hit for the cycle. In baseball, a player hits for the cycle when he hits a single, a double, a triple and a home run in the same game, though not necessarily in that order. Collecting the hits in that order is known as a "natural cycle."

For the day he finished 4-5 with 3 runs batted in and 2 runs scored and helped his Marlins knock off the Boston Red Sox 14-9 at Joe Robbie Stadium. In the postgame press conference he said, "I didn't even know I had hit for the cycle until after the game."

D. Young hit a solo-shot off D. Cone in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, tripled in the 6th and hit a two-run double in the 7th.

In the 1998 season Young is batting .342 with 115 hits and 16 home runs. He has scored 49 times and batted in 63.
