Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton celebrated his bobblehead day in fitting fashion, delivering the franchise’s first cycle since 2019 on Saturday in their penultimate game of the first half against the Pittsburgh Pirates (GameTracker).
Buxton started his afternoon with an infield single to lead off the bottom of the first inning. He then tripled in the second before doubling in the third. Buxton would single again in the fifth before adding the final part — yes, the home run — in the seventh inning. Here’s a look at the capper:
Buxton’s cycle was the second of the Major League Baseball season. Chicago Cubs catcher Carson Kelly recorded the first back on March 31 against the Athletics. Additionally, it was the 12th in the Twins franchise history. Here’s a look at the others:

Buxton, an All-Star for the second time, entered Saturday having hit .273/.340/.543 (138 OPS+) with 20 home runs and 17 stolen bases in 76 games. His contributions had been worth an estimated 3.5 Wins Above Replacement, according to Baseball Reference’s calculations.
Presuming the Twins secure the win — and they were leading by eight runs late — they’ll improve to 47-48 on the season. They’ll remain 12 games back of the Detroit Tigers, but the third and final wild card spot remains within reach — perhaps just three games away if the Tampa Bay Rays lose their ongoing contest to the Boston Red Sox.

Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool made Wimbledon history by winning the Wimbledon men's doubles final on Saturday.When Cash and Glasspool beat Rinky Hijikata and David Pel 6-2 7-6 (3) in the final on Centre Court, they became the first all-British pairing to win the title since Pat Hughes and Raymond Tuckey lifted the trophy in 1936. Jonny Marray, Neal Skupski and Henry Patten 12 months ago have all been home winners at Wimbledon in the last 15 years, but all with foreign doubles partners."It was absolutely incredible. It's a dream come true and to be able to do it in front of all your home fans, your friends, your family," Glasspool told Sky Sports News."I didn't feel too much pressure, I just felt a load of confidence with all the matches we'd won in the past."

Salače zlobilo rameno, přesto v předčasně ukončeném závodě v Německu dojel šťastně v desítce
„Je to pro mě docela těžký víkend, včera byla voda, měl jsem menší pád, hnul jsem si s ramenem a není to úplně ideální, je to už třetí den,“ pravil Salač před startem závodu do kamery TV Nova.V deštivé sobotní kvalifikaci si na německé dráze nedaleko hranic s Českem vyjel čtrnáctou příčku, ze které se po startu dostal o dvě pozice vpřed. Postupně ale začal klesat pořadím a pendloval kolem poslední bodované patnácté pozice.Směrem kupředu mu ale pomohly dva karamboly jezdců před nimi. Nejprve se srazil David Alonso s Diogem Moreirou a čtyři kola před koncem Albert Arenas s Marcosem Ramírezem. Právě po jejich srážce byl závod předčasně ukončen. Salač tak dojel posedmé z dosavadních jedenácti závodů v první desítce. Na Sachsenringu vyhrál Turek Deniz Öncü, jenž se nedlouho po startu ze šesté pozice dostal do čela a skoro celou dobu mu dýchal na záda Belgičan Barry Baltus. Třetí finišoval Salačův stájový […]
