Bannon Hittin' on All Cylinders
Bill Bannon of the St. Paul Barons touched all the bases today at Widgets Ballpark in the 15-7 victory over Norfolk , hitting for the cycle.

He teed off on Navigators pitching, collecting 1 single, 1 double, 1 triple and 1 home run. The feat is rare in baseball as it requires a game of no fewer than four hits and the unusual combination of a home run, which requires a batter to hit for some power -- and a triple, which requires a batter to have both speed and a favorable fall of the ball.

"The hardest part was the triple," Bannon confessed after the game. "A lot has to go right. It's real easy to get greedy trying to stretch a double and get thrown out. It's really hard to get a three-bagger."

He finished the big day with 4 hits in 6 at-bats, 5 runs batted in, 4 runs scored -- and a place in the record books.

Bill Bannon grounded out in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, grounded out in the 3rd, hit an RBI triple in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 7th and hit an RBI double in the 8th.

So far in 2071 Bannon is batting .400 with 3 home runs, 9 RBIs and 13 runs scored. He has 10 hits in 25 at-bats and a .444 OBP.
