"I actually put a good swing on the ball in my fourth at-bat, but I got jammed a bit on the flyout. "It helped getting that triple out of the way early, and then of course, the single and double," he said. McNeil followed Mobile's Jose Rojas with the Minors' second cycle of the weekend. The four hits matched a personal best, done most recently last Aug. The Santa Barbara, California native batted for a sixth time in the ninth, but lined out in his attempt at a career-high fifth hit. McNeil flied came close to completing the cycle on a deep fly out in the fifth, but he made sure of it with a solo homer to right in the eighth. He singled to right and crossed the plate on Alonso's ninth home run of the season in the third before doubling to right and scoring on Kevin Taylor's single in the fourth. McNeil drove in Levi Michael with a run-scoring triple to center field and scored on an RBI groundout by Peter Alonso in the top of the first inning. "I was seeing the ball really well today, especially in my earlier at-bats when I was looking to jump on a fastball and things clicked from there." Josh Satin accomplished the feat against Bowie on June 24, 2011. The 26-year-old became the second player in club history to hit for the cycle. The Mets' infielder capped off the first cycle of his career with an eighth-inning homer, scored four times and drove in two runs as Double-A Binghamton defeated Portland, 10-4, at Hadlock Field. Jeff McNeil knows he can't make up for lost time in the course of one game, but Sunday's performance landed him in the history books all the same.
