What happened
Xander Bogaerts lamented the single he couldn't get to complete the cycle. With the homer, triple and double out of the way early, the San Diego Padres shortstop struck out looking and then swinging in his last two at-bats on Thursday in his bid to become the fourth Padres player to hit for a cycle. “That one might sting a little bit,” Bogaerts said after a 9-2 win over the Colorado Rockies.
