Turner's cycle, hot bats cool off Rox rally

Turner (23 years, 300 days old) is the youngest player to hit for the cycle since Mike Trout (21 years, 287 days) in 2013. Overall, Turner is the 24th youngest, between Hall of Famers Cal Ripken Jr. and Goose Goslin.

Carlos Gonzalez hit a solo home run, and Mark Reynolds and Charlie Blackmon each hit his seventh of the season for the Rockies, who pulled to within three runs on doubles by DJ LeMahieu and Nolan Arenado in the fifth. But that was as close as Colorado would get, also drawing to within three on Gerardo Parra's third homer of the season in the ninth.
