The Brock Star strikes again.
Brock Holt hit for the cycle Tuesday at Fenway Park, going 4 for 5 with two RBIs and two runs scored in the Boston Red Sox’s 9-4 win over the Atlanta Braves. It’s been a while since any Red Sox hit for the cycle, even though it was the 21st in franchise history.

Holt batted leadoff and played second base in place of Dustin Pedroia, who received a day off to rest a sore knee. Holt led off the game with a double in the first inning and scored the game’s first run on Mookie Betts’ two-bagger. Holt then hit a single in the fifth inning, a solo home run in the seventh and a triple in the eighth.

“As soon as barrel hit ball, I was like ‘Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God,’ because once it gets in the triangle, anything is possible,” Holt said, via WEEI.com.
