Royals prospect Nicky Lopez had a game to remember by the sixth inning of Northwest Arkansas' 17-3 win at Tulsa on Thursday night.
Lopez, who was the Royals' fifth-round pick in 2016, hit for the cycle the natural way. He led off the game with a single, then doubled in the third inning, added an RBI triple in the fourth and opened the sixth inning with a home run to right field.
"As you get closer after you get that single and then a double and then a triple, in the back of your mind, you start thinking about it," Lopez told MiLB.
