Phillies' Bryce Harper joins Trea Turner with fun history after hitting for the cycle

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper hit for the cycle on Saturday, June 21, 2026, against the New York Mets, then came within one leg of hitting for the cycle again the following day. According to Opta STATS, this feat made Harper and Trea Turner the last two MLB players to nearly achieve back-to-back cycles. The accomplishment came despite the Phillies losing Game 1 of the series, with teammates Kyle Schwarber also contributing four home runs across the two games.
