Chicago Cubs star outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong hit for the cycle during Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies after recording a single in the seventh inning.
Crow-Armstrong is the 13th player in franchise history to accomplish the feat and the first major leaguer since Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton last July. He's also the fifth player to record a reverse cycle (homer, triple, double, and single) since 1961, according to Sarah Langs of MLB.com.

However, Crow-Armstrong proceeded to get picked off at first base with the Wrigley Field crowd still standing on its feet, which prompted the Rockies broadcasters to have some fun with the situation.
"See ya. Enjoy the ovation." 😅

Carson Kelly (March 2025) was the last Cubs player to hit for the cycle before Crow-Armstrong.
