Bengie Molina just hit for the cycle.

Unbelievable!

Man, that was like a 30 second triple. Unbelievable is right.

And unfortunately they had to take him out of the game afterward...he overextended himself. Hope it's just a precaution.

The guys on MLB Network had a great line. They said that the last triple he had was from Wendy's and had cheese on it.

Only the sixth triple of his career.

I am sitting here watching the game with my son and I no more than say "he has no chance of hitting for the cycle", damned if he doesn't! That was freaking funny too. Have you seen anyone...EVER...as slow as him? I swear that he is the only player in the league who would get a triple on that hit...EVERYONE else would have had an inside the park homer. Some guys could have run all the way around and back to first on that one. I told my son that he could run backward around the bases than Molina ran them forward.


Good for him!

I remember there was a race in spring training between Molina and someone else who's really slow in a bet to see who the slowest player in the league is, and Bengie lost the race.

Red Sox radio announcers had just mention only way for a triple was for Patterson to just miss on a catch and the ball roll aound in the triangle. They also said the home plate ump could of run beside Bengie Molina and make sure he touch every base :D

HaHa! Former Ranger Marlon Byrd hit a homerun for the Cubs today and his homerun TROT took less time to hit all four bases than it took for Molina's triple.:1omg!:

Score one for the old slow guys!

Rangers radio announcers said that he has hit a triple once every 999 at bats- 1 in a 1,000 chance... Now figure the probability for doing it to complete a cycle?
