Pete Crow‑Armstrong Hits Reverse‑Order Cycle at Wrigley

Overview

• Pete Crow‑Armstrong hit for the cycle Monday at Wrigley Field by recording a home run, triple, double and a seventh‑inning single in reverse order.
• He was picked off first base on the very next pitch after completing the cycle, turning an ovation into an immediate baserunning blunder.
• The performance extends a hot stretch that began May 30, a run in which Crow‑Armstrong has posted markedly higher contact and power numbers and driven recent lineup production.
• Early reports differ on the game’s finish with several outlets saying the Rockies seized a late 4‑2 lead and at least one reporting the Cubs later won on a walk‑off; the cycle itself and the pickoff are consistently reported.
• Crow‑Armstrong’s cycle is the 13th in Cubs history, the first since Carson Kelly in 2025, and underscores both his growing offensive value and the rarity of reverse‑order cycles in MLB.
