never heard of a record celebrated where you are aiming lower ....so If you have a homer triple and double...and your 4th AB you are penalized on a base hit that you stretched into a second double....because now no cycle? guess you should slow down and take the easy single instead of the sure double to preserve the cycle....

who really cares about filling each category...to me a true cycle is homer triple double single, walk and hit by pitch....lets see that happen...

but oh what a pitty if a guy hits 3 homers and a single....not as good as a cycle......
