Hitting for the cycle means hitting a single, double, triple, and home run in one game; a "natural" cycle is hitting them in order--that is, first a single, then a double, then a triple, and then a home run. 13 major league players have hit for the natural cycle. Leon Culberson, Bob Fothergill, Charlie Gehringer, Tony Lazzeri, Jose Valentin, Bob Watson, Ken Boyer, Tim Foli, Jim Hickman, John Mabry, Billy Williams, Bill Collins and Brad Wilkerson.
