Gwogast Gorund stars with cycle against Dagorlad

MINAS MORGUL - Gwogast Gorund is a pretty good hitter, but his 4 hit performance on May 29 seemed to surprise even himself considering that the hits added up to the cycle, one of the most difficult things to accomplish in baseball. A triple off Vim Rinlyg in the 3rd inning, accounted for his 1st hit. Number 2 in the 5th inning accounted for a double. A single in the 6th off Vim Rinlyg accounted for his 3rd hit. His 4th hit, off Celebalata Celebalataiel in the 8th inning, was a three-run homerun and cleared the fence in right-center. That drive completed the cycle, causing a smile on his face! Gwogast scored 2 runs, and he collected 4 RBI as well! He now has a total of 22 hits this season, accounting for a .256 batting average. He becomes the 25th player in league history collect at least a single, double, triple and a homerun in a single game. Hudash Elfprodder was the last player to hit for the cycle, doing it 4/23/2011.
