Emperors 2B Jela Gets the Cycle Wednesday, May 29th , 2148 At The Bird's Nest, Duecha Jela led Beijing to a win, 10-2, over the Karachi Falcons by hitting for the cycle, one of baseball's more difficult feats. "Usually the triple is the hardest one to get, but I was most worried about the homer today because the ball wasn't carrying," Jela said later. "When I took it deep, I was expecting the ball to die on the warning track, so it was sweet seeing the ump give me the signal to circle the bases." In addition to going 4-for-4, Jela chalked up 3 runs batted in and scored 3 runs in an exceptional performance. Duecha Jela hit an RBI triple in the 1st, walked in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Dharmendra Sarmad in the 4th, singled in the 6th and doubled in the 8th. For the season, Jela has hit .261 with 5 home runs and 21 RBIs. He has played in 44 games and scored 25 times. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
