Bryon Buxton missed the cycle by a single Friday night. To make the near feat even more impressive, his home run was inside the park:

The speed of Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton was on display again Friday night when he hit an inside-the-park home run against the Arizona Diamondbacks, circling the bases in a record time of 13.85 seconds, according to Statcast, MLB’s data tracking system.

Buxton launched a deep fly ball to right-center field over Arizona’s A.J. Pollack, who could not field the carom off the base of the wall.

Buxton fits the Billy Hamilton mold of offensive player, but a little better. He walks more, and has a bit more power, but he hits mostly singles and gets to second on stolen bases (21 for 22 stealing this season). One reason I love baseball so much is that on any given night, you never know what unusual feat you’ll see.

The Twins beat the Diamondbacks 10-3.
