Every position player in baseball<\/a> dreams of one day hitting for the cycle. It\u2019s a rare occurrence when one hits a single, double, triple and home run in one game.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s only happened 343 times since the first in 1882 by Curry Foley. The most recent was Cincinnati Reds rookie Elly De La Cruz\u2019s on June 23.<\/p>\n

So, when fellow rookie and Baltimore Orioles<\/a> phenom Gunnar Henderson smashed a ball down the right-field line against the Oakland Athletics, his teammates and the crowd began cheering because he needed just a single to complete his cycle.<\/p>\n

But Henderson did the unthinkable: He ran to second base for another double.<\/p>\n

“You know what? Gunnar Henderson is not going to stop at first,” the Orioles\u2019 play-by-play announcer said during the 12-1 win for Baltimore. “Who needs a cycle when you can pick up your fourth extra-base hit of the game? The Orioles bench is saying he should\u2019ve stopped at first.”<\/p>\n

The camera panned to the Orioles\u2019 dugout, showing a group of Henderson\u2019s teammates and coaches who looked completely dumbfounded by what they witnessed. Many had their hands up trying to figure out why Henderson didn\u2019t just stop.<\/p>\n

ORIOLES’ CEDRIC MULLINS MAKES LEAPING CATCH, HITS GO-AHEAD HOME RUN VS MARINERS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Orioles were already up 10-1 in the contest in the top of the eighth, so it wasn\u2019t like Henderson taking an extra bag was going to massively help the team\u2019s chances at winning. The probability of that was already through the roof.<\/p>\n

But instead of collecting the 13th cycle in franchise history \u2013 outfielder Cedric Mullins accomplished the feat<\/a> on May 12 \u2013 he wanted his first career four extra-base-hit game.<\/p>\n

Henderson grinned at second base and even shrugged as he looked at his teammates. Replay showed that he was sprinting out of the box despite seeing the ball rocket past the Athletics\u2019 first baseman \u2013 he clearly had double on his mind.<\/p>\n

Henderson has been one of the reasons for the Orioles\u2019 surge this season, slashing .249\/.331\/.484 with 21 homers and 61 RBI over 113 games after this contest. The 22-year-old is just getting started in his MLB career and has shown why he was one of the organization\u2019s top prospects as a second-round pick in the 2019 MLB Draft.<\/p>\n

After passing up on making team and league history, Henderson is also proving to the Orioles that the personal accolades don\u2019t trump winning and doing the right thing when an extra base is available on the diamond.<\/p>\n

In this case, though, his teammates and coaches didn\u2019t mind if he stopped at first base to accomplish that feat every hitter dreams of.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
