Bellman Touches All Bases, Hits for Cycle
Requiring speed, power and regular contact, the cycle is often seen as a test of a complete hitter. For Kevin Bellman, consider that test passed.

The 34-year-old second baseman hit for the cycle at Quebecor Stadium today to lead the Minnesota Twins to a 13-5 win over the Montreal Expos. All told, Bellman delivered 4 hits in 6 at-bats with 4 runs batted in and 2 runs scored.

"It feels good of course, but I'm not going to kid anyone -- there's a lot of luck in hitting for the cycle," he said after the game. "Several unique things have to come together all in the same game."

Kevin Bellman hit a solo-shot off Jon Turman in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, flied out in the 5th, singled in the 7th, hit a three-run triple in the 8th and flied out in the 9th.

This season Bellman is hitting at a .335 pace with 15 home runs, 47 RBIs and has scored 36 times.
