McCants Clips Ironclads for Cycle
TJ McCants did everything he could for the Atlantic City Caesars -- literally.

The 25-year-old center fielder hit a single, a double, a triple and a home run for the Caesars, going for the cycle and helping them get past the Pulaski Ironclads, 17-11, at Caesars Ballpark.

"Yeah, I was some kind of hitter in this game," McCants 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, McCants banged out 4 hits in 6 at-bats and totaled 4 RBI and 2 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."

TJ McCants hit a solo-shot off Melvin Hernandez in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, struck out in the 3rd, hit a three-run triple in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and flied out in the 7th.

So far this season, McCants is hitting .371 with 15 home runs.
