I am pretty excited today, I just hit for the cycle in my dream draft season!
The player was Ryan Howard, and his first at bat was a double, then a single, then a monster home run.
I knew that the triple was going to be hard. (especially for R. Howard).
I had a man on second when he (Ryan) hit a blast to center field, over the center fielder's head.
The center fielder threw the ball to the cut-off man, I "faked" to home with the man on second, so they threw it to the pitcher who was between home and third. Ryan Howard then ran to third, and the pitcher didn't know what to do with the ball. The man on third came home, and Ryan made it to third. And that meant a triple
(sorry about the "book" of a post)

, those triples or home runs are murder. Either you have a guy who has too much power and can never hit it deep enough to get a triple and will get a double instead or will always hit homes when you go for the triple. You can't get in between. Then you have the really fast, decent power guys who can hit the homers. Then you have the fact that my team plays in panapaka park (last year) which is by far the hardest to hit homers in. Plus, the other teams in my division (best teams in one division) all have smaller fields where triples are impossible. I once hit one with jorge when I played the yanks. On easy average level mode (after half a year of playing I played the first week of the season in average level) however, I hit 5 cycles in one game, had a 1-hitter, and had damon and a-rod hit two cycles worth in one game. I couldn't play past 2 games because the games took like 45 minutes to an hour each because of my hitting.
