Meyerhoff Collects Cycle
Mike Meyerhoff did everything he could for the The United States today -- literally.

The 32-year-old catcher hit a single, a double, a triple and a home run for the The United States, going for the cycle and helping them get past the Chinese Taipei, 9-1, at The United States Park.

"Yeah, I was some kind of hitter in this game," Meyerhoff reflected later. "It was like all I had to do was close my eyes and swing the bat."

In a game headed for the record books, Meyerhoff banged out 4 hits in 4 at-bats and totaled 1 RBI and 3 runs scored. Speaking with the press about the feat, he attributed it to "a lot of luck."

"A triple is so hard to hit," he said. "To just decide to get one in a game when you need it for a cycle, it's impossible. Usually something weird has to happen, the ball kicking past an outfielder or somebody falling down. There's a ton of luck in hitting for a cycle."

Mike Meyerhoff tripled in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Zhao-ying Joe in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th and singled in the 7th.
