Does anyone know if any MLB player has hit for the cycle(1b,2b,3b and hr in one game) in MLB, the minor league and college ball??? The cycle is a hard feat to do, but has anyone done at these three levels of play would be one heck of a hitter.

I know has been done at each level, but has any one player done it at each level.

Players with two or more:
John Reilly, Cincinnati
Dave Orr, New York (AA)
Tip O'Neill, St. Louis
Pete Browning,Louisville
Jimmy Ryan, Chicago (NL)
Fred Clarke, Pittsburgh
George Sisler, St. Louis (AL)
Bob Meusel, New York (AL)
Babe Herman, Brooklyn
Chuck Klein Philadelphia (NL)
Mickey Cochrane, Philadelphia (AL)
Bob Watson, Houston
John Olerud, New York (NL)
While never having occurred in Major League Baseball, there have been instances in college baseball and other leagues of a home run cycle, hitting 1-run, 2-run, 3-run, and 4-run (grand slam) home runs all in the same game.
There have been 14 natural cycles in the Major Leagues; eight in the National League and six in the American League.
There have been 6 cycles in which the home run was a grand slam. This happened five times in the American League and once in the National League
On June 23, 1932, Tony Lazzeri became the only player in Major League history to accomplish both feats listed above: hitting a single, a double, a triple, and ending with a grand slam. This is often overlooked because Lazzeri did it in the same game that teammate Lou Gehrig hit four home runs.
Nap Lajoie, Jimmie Foxx, Lou Gehrig, and Chuck Klein all hit for the cycle in the same season that they won the Triple Crown.
One reason I beleive this has never been done is because most of the all time baseball greats never played college ball.

yeah plenty have. one that i can think of on the top of my head is Tony Lazzeri, Yankee player, hit the cycle complete with a Grade Slam in one game. But this was overlooked because Lou Gehrig hit 4 homers in that same game.

Can't recall their names, but yes, it's been done more than a few times in the major leagues.
