 | Díaz Goes Cycling Friday, July 2nd, 2021: "It's too bad I can't do that every day," Pedro Díaz said with a smile to reporters after today's game. "It would do wonders for my batting average." Díaz had every right to be in a good mood after hitting for the cycle today against Buffalo at Ballpark of Buffalo. The Knights won the ballgame 9-2, he hit for the cycle, had a 5-for-5 game and boosted his batting average up a few points. The 30-year-old New York catcher chalked up 2 RBI and 2 runs scored for the game, too. Who says you can't have it all? He told the press that a triple is the tough hit to get in a cycle. "As soon as it left the bat, guys jumped off the bench and were rooting hard for me to have enough gas to get there," Díaz said. "It was hard to enjoy it... I was breathing too hard... you got to really be in shape to run out a triple." P. Díaz hit a solo-shot off J. Heller in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI triple in the 6th and singled in the 8th. Currently Díaz has 13 home runs and a .266 batting average. |
