Red Sox LF Kontic Gets the Cycle
The Boston Red Sox lost, 11-5, to the Cincinnati Reds at Fenway Park, and none took the loss harder than Ivan Kontic, who saw a sensational game -- in which he hit for the cycle -- wasted.

"It feels really, really bad," he said later. "You feel like you deserve the win with a day like that."

The left fielder ripped Cincinnati pitching for 4 hits in 5 at-bats and tallied 2 RBI. Kontic also scored 3 runs on his remarkable day.

Ivan Kontic singled in the 1st, tripled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, struck out in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Seb Lang in the 9th.

This year, Kontic has hit at a .381 clip with 8 hits, 2 home runs, 4 RBIs and 9 runs scored.
