Baseball loves its clean, semi-arbitrary marks of success. It loves hitters who sport an average of .300, even though that doesn’t really tell us much (but is irrefutably a good thing). It loves pitchers who keep their ERA under 3.00, even though the same aforementioned qualifier applies.
It loves no-hitters, which are a sign of greatness, even though it often passes over much greater performances in the process, because they don’t fit the parameters.
And it loves cycles, the clean act of hitting for a single, a double, a triple, and a home run, all in the same game.
