Yordan Alvarez Makes History with Cycle at T-Mobile Park, Despite Astros Loss

On July 21, 2024, Houston Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez made baseball history by hitting for the cycle against the Seattle Mariners at T-Mobile Park. This marked the second time in T-Mobile Park history that a player achieved this feat, following Miguel Tejada's accomplishment in 2001.

Alvarez opened his historic day with a single off Bryan Woo in the first inning and added his 20th homer of the season, also against Woo, in the fourth. In the sixth inning, Alvarez hit a triple on a deep fly ball to center field that was dropped by Julio Rodriguez. The error allowed Alvarez to hustle into third base and complete his cycle with a double down the right-field line in the eighth against Gregory Santos.

Although the Astros lost 6-4, Alvarez's impressive performance earned him widespread recognition. He finished 4 for 4 with two RBI and two runs scored. The triple was particularly noteworthy as it came on a fly ball to deep center field that Julio Rodriguez jumped for but missed, resulting in an injury to the Mariners outfielder.

Alvarez's cycle was the second one in Major League Baseball that season and his 10th career triple. The Astros' designated hitter expressed excitement about achieving this milestone, stating:
