Fourmile cycle
Tyler Davidson, a member of the Fourmile Logging 14- and 15-year-old Babe Ruth team, recently hit for the cycle during a league game against Hill Trucking at Clyde Allen Field.
Davidson had a double his first time up. He then homered over the left-field fence to lead off an inning and tripled later in the same inning. Davidson beat out the throw for an infield single to complete the cycle.
Fourmile Logging coach Rick Spring said it’s the first time he’s had a player hit for the cycle in many years working with Babe Ruth.
