"Adrian Beltre has been awful." I have this friend at work. Cool guy. Studying to be a math teacher. We talk sports when we can. Today, I mentioned that I thought the Mariners were run a bit like Nintendo: Esoteric, not overtly competitive but ruthlessly profitable. He brought up some of their stupid free agent signings. I thought: Jarrod Washburn, Carlos Silva, Richie Sexson, but no, Adrian Beltre....

What’s the rarest feat to accomplish in baseball? Going 6 for 6? Pitching a perfect game? Well the rarest happened last night and hadn’t happened since 1921, two players hitting a cycle on the same day. Stephen Drew hit the third cycle in Arizona Diamondbacks history and Adrian Beltre couldn’t have picked a better time [...]

I guess Stephen Drew isn't a big name, except for writers of slash fiction. All he did on Monday was hit for the cycle, and AP called him Scott Drew (11th graph). Later Monday, Adrian Beltre also hit...
