Whats more impressive 3 homers or the cycle? - The Postgame Pub

To me its the cycle triples are harder to come by now a days. maybe real baseball will come back now that steriods era is over.

It all depends. If someone hits 3 inside the parkers That would be impressive. Or if a AL pitcher hits three hr's in interleague play....That would be impressive. It would also be impresive if the same pitcher hit for a cycle.....

i don't know what would be impressive to me personally...

as long as it's something crazy and rarely seen by me, then i'll find it really impressive...

I actually think its a tie. You get a handful of each every season.

Raider1one · 05-11-2008, 11:28 AM

dude i think 3 homers is more impressive because after you hit 2 in a row \, the opposing pitchers will probably pitch around you...

like tonight... an unassisted triple play for Cabrera of the cleveland indians, that was awesome!

Are you saying an NL pitcher hitting 3 HR's wouldn't be any good? But there is Micah Owings, and that kinda kills that.. Watch the D-Backs DH him during interleague play. I wish you could use him offensively on fantasy teams.

No no no, Its becouse how many times does a AL pitcher actually hit a season compared to a NL pitcher?

The best chance an NL guy had was when Ankiel was still apitcher for the cards.

I see your point, but I still think an NL pitcher hitting 3 HR's in a game, that would still be impressive.

Or when Hampton was pitching for the rockies.

Cycle. Trying to get a triple in a game is pretty difficult to do.

Canadaleaf · 05-19-2008, 10:53 AM

cycle happens less in a season
