Two Near Cycles

The Pirates win big Friday night, beating the Brewers 10-3. Starling Marte missed the cycle by a home run, while Andrew McCutchen missed by a triple. Combined, their six hits drove in five runs and the pair scored three times. The Pirates are hitting on all cylinders as they win their seventh in a row and will at least continue to share the lead in the NL Central.

McCutchen has not hit a triple in 2013. He averaged six a year during his first four seasons in the majors.
