Reyes hits for cycle for Mets

NEW YORK -- Mets shortstop Jose Reyes hit for the cycle
Wednesday night against the Cincinnati Reds, becoming the ninth
player in club history to accomplish the feat.

Reyes hit his fourth career leadoff homer to extend his hitting
streak to nine games. He doubled in the third, tripled into
right-center in the fifth and grounded a single into center field
in the eighth in the Mets' 6-5 loss.

The Shea Stadium crowd cheered wildly as Reyes stood on first in
the eighth and the scoreboard in right-center recognized the
accomplishment.

The last player to hit for the cycle for the Mets was Eric
Valent, who did it on July 29, 2004, in New York's 10-1 win over
the Montreal Expos.
