Trea Turner hits for cycle, notches 7 RBIs as Nationals outslug Rockies
DENVER -- Trea Turner wore everything he could to stay warm, including a red ski mask that covered his face.
For someone who doesn't enjoy hitting in the cold, he sure was hot at the plate.
Turner hit for the third cycle in Nationals history and drove in a career-high seven runs, helping Washington to a 15-12 win over the Colorado Rockies on a frigid Tuesday night.
The shortstop had a single in the first, a two-run double in the second, a two-run homer in the sixth and a bases-loaded triple in the seventh. It was the first cycle by the Nationals since Cristian Guzman on Aug. 28, 2008.
