Murray Big Deal in Pittsburgh: Hits for Cycle
Pittsburgh's Dave Murray accomplished what few others have done -- he hit for the cycle, collecting a single, double, triple and home run in the same game.

For the day, Murray finished 4-for-5 with 3 RBI and 4 runs scored and helped the Pirates knock off the St. Louis Cardinals, 11-5, at Busch Stadium.

"I didn't even know I was about to hit for the cycle until after," Murray told reporters following the game. "One of the guys mentioned it when I got back to the dugout."

Dave Murray doubled in the 2nd, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Jim Rose in the 5th, hit an RBI triple in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.

This season, Murray has hit at a .276 clip with 45 RBIs, 10 home runs and 57 runs scored. He has played in 111 games.
