Luis Arráez became the first player in Marlins franchise history to hit for the cycle on Tuesday, recording a double in the first inning, a triple in the sixth inning, a home run in the seventh inning and a single in the eighth inning against the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.
That helped Miami (5–7) defeat the reigning National League champions on the road by a score of 8–4 and continued Arráez’s scorching hot start. The infielder has racked up 22 hits with one home run in 41 at-bats to record a slash line of .537/.596/.732, making him the MLB leader in batting average and on-base percentage. He’s the only player in the majors to get on base in at least half of his at-bats nearly two weeks into the season.
Luis Arraez makes history for the @Marlins!
