Waner Hits for the Cycle:
Paul Waner truly did it all at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park today.
The Cal State Fullerton Titans right fielder hit for the cycle -- collecting 1 single, 1 double, 1 triple and 1 home run -- as he paced his club to victory, 12-11 over the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
"You know that sweet sound you hear when you hit the ball just right? I heard that every time today," Waner said later. "It was a heck of a feeling."
It was a game good enough for him to make a little history. He bombed Texas Tech pitching for 4 hits in 5 at-bats and his name will now go into the record books. Waner also racked up 3 runs batted in and 2 runs scored in the game.
Paul Waner doubled in the 1st, tripled in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Matt Boyd in the 4th, struck out in the 6th, walked in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.
Waner is currently batting .389 with 22 home runs and 62 RBIs.
