Welcome to The Walk Off, the nightly MLB recap from Big League Stew. Here we'll look at the top performers of the night, show you a must-see highlight and rundown the scoreboard. First, we start with a game you need to know about.   Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman became the first major-league player to hit for the cycle in the Braves wild, 9-8, 13-inning win against the Reds on Wednesday night. Freeman needed the extra frames to complete the feat. He was single shy leading up to his at-bat in the 11th inning, but ended the drama by lining a clean hit to center field. Freeman took a preferred path to the feat, getting the more difficult hits out of the way early. He doubled in the third inning, tripled in the fourth, and then hit a solo homer in the sixth. Oddly enough, despite his performance and the score, the home run would mark his lone RBI.  Freeman also another single taken away by replay in the 12th inning, so it's a good thing he completed it when he did.   Freeman first #Braves player to hit for cycle since Mark Kotsay on Aug. 14, 2008 vs. Cubs. — David O'Brien (@DOBrienAJC) June 16, 2016 Continue to Article
