Arenado hits for the cycle

NOLAN Arenado became the first Colorado player to hit for the cycle since 2014, capping his feat with a walkoff homer to lift the Rockies to a 7-5 win over San Francisco. The Rockies had one run home with runners at the corners and one out when Arenado stepped in against Giants closer Mark Melancon. Arenado hit the first pitch he saw from Melancon into the left-field seats to cap a four-game sweep of the Giants. Arenado is the eighth player in Rockies history to hit for the cycle and first since Michael Cuddyer on August 2014 against Cincinnati. Arenado is the 31st player in major league history to hit a walkoff homer to complete the cycle and first since teammate Carlos Gonzalez did it in July 2010 against the Cubs. It was the first cycle for Arenado, who tripled in the 1st, singled in the 4th and doubled in the 6th before hitting his 15th home run.
