Kyle Schwarber hist three home runs and Phillies teammate Bryce Harper hit for the cycle, marking just the second time MLB history that a player and a teammate had three home runs and a cycle in one game since Lou Gehrig and Tony Lazzeri did it with the Yankees in 1932. The Phillies beat the Mets, 15-3. Harper needed only five innings to complete his cycle, while Schwarber also hit two home runs in the same inning — the 8th.
My take: Even rarer — Harper hitting a triple. To get one on the same night he hit for the cycle is serendipitous.
