Jose Altuve Hits For Cycle At Fenway Park 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Aug 29, 2023 11:59 am

Jose Altuve hit for the cycle at Fenway Park on Monday night, capping the accomplishment with a two-run home run over the Green Monster in the eighth inning.

He became just the ninth Houston Astros player to hit for the cycle in the club\'s 13-5 win over the Boston Red Sox.

Altuve is the first Houston player to do it since Brandon Barnes against the Seattle Mariners on July 19, 2013. 

He said that walking to the plate in the eighth, he was well aware of his personal scoreboard.

\"It\'s kind of like in your mind, but you don\'t want to change your whole approach,\" he said. \"I was just thinking about getting a pitch and trying to drive it.\"
