Averill Hittin' on All Cylinders
Earl Averill showed off his speed, his power and his plate discipline today at Moreing Park, putting together all facets of his game to hit for the cycle in the Sacramento win.

The 38-year-old left fielder went 4-for-4, collecting 1 single, 1 double, 1 triple and 1 home run to help the Solons top the Portland Beavers by a score of 6-5. A jubilant Averill told reporters afterward that the experience was "unimaginable."

"Seriously, I would have been happy going 1-for-4 with just the double," he said. "So this feels incredible."

For the day, Averill finished with 3 runs batted in and 1 run scored to go with his 4 hits.

Earl Averill tripled in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off By Speece in the 5th and hit an RBI single in the 7th.

Averill is batting .295 this year with 13 home runs, 65 RBIs and 70 runs scored. He has 133 hits in 451 at-bats.
