    I bought one of his T-Jersies last year. I still wear it proudly. Way to go Wyatt, keep up the good work.

    When I look at Wyatt, I see a bigger Mickey Mantle, less switch hitting, drinking, and womanizing. Do hope Wyatt keeps his life and career on a healthy level with the kind of success he is going to have in MLB.

    I thought Wyatt was the steal of the draft last year by the Texas Rangers.

    My son and I received T-Jersies for Father's Day last year. He got a 36 and I got a 15. He was wearing his last night when he sent me the video of Wyatt's HR. Quite a feat.

    As a side what a great call by Ravi with the set up right before the blast. My youngest is a HUGE Rangers fan and we watched it live. Super cool deal.

    Hitting for the cycle and ho hitters are just about equally rare. But I think that hitting for the cycle is over rated. Three homers and a double is better.

    Nobody has ever hit four triples in a game I am guessing.

    I felt lucky to see him play with relatively cheap seats.

    I bet they don't call him "Rookie" anymore.

    I'm glad you posted this play, Langford is on fire this month... Rookie of the month, I believe too.

    I think he raised his BA 23 points in just the last week.

    Raised it another 4 points today with a double and a homer. Definitely hot right now. In fact, his batting average would already rank 40th in the majors, if he had enough ABs to qualify.

    I need to look up his BA with RISP - it's even higher there.
