Hitting a single, a double, a triple, and a home run in the same game is one of the rarest accomplishments in a sport filled with some of the most daunting records in professional sports. Consensus best baseball player of his generation, Mike “The Millville Meteor” Trout joined that prestigious club when he hit for the cycle during the Los Angeles Angels 7-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners on May 21, 2013. Trout, who drove in five RBI during the lopsided victory, became the youngest American League player and third youngest in MLB history when he accomplished the feat, adding more fuel to his meteoric rise in the MLB.
