It's been a long season for the Baltimore Orioles, but Jonathan Villar provided a bright spot Monday.
The shortstop hit for the cycle against the New York Yankees in a 9-6 loss:
Baltimore Orioles.@JRvillar6 became the fifth Oriole in franchise history to hit for the cycle, and the third to do so at OPACY! #Birdland https://t.co/tc8GZ5Nci6
He was just the third home player to accomplish the feat since Oriole Park at Camden Yards opened in 1992.
Villar got the difficult part of the cycle out of the way early with a triple in the third inning; it was just the 13th of his seven-year career.
