PITTSBURGH -- Pirates first baseman John Jaso hit his way to PNC Park history on Wednesday night, completing the first cycle in the history of Pittsburgh's ballpark along the Allegheny River in the Bucs' game against the Cubs.
Jaso had three hits off Cubs right-hander Jake Arrieta: a single to left in the second inning, a homer to right in the fourth and a double to right in the fifth. He finished the job in the seventh, ripping a line drive over Albert Almora Jr.'s head in center field. The ball stuck at the base of the wall before Almora grabbed it, and Jaso wheeled around to third base after briefly hesitating at second base.
