Kung Fu Panda: Hitting for the Cycle is Hard

Pablo Sandoval, in all of his 260-pound glory, hit for the cycle Thursday night in his team's 8-5 win over the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field to mark their fifth straight win.

Kung Fu Panda completed the 25th cycle in Giants history with a two-run shot in the first inning off Jhoulys Chachin, a single in the second, a double in the fifth, and finally, a two-out triple in the sixth completed by an awesome head-first dive. Ridiculous.

While Sandoval's weight has been the main topic of conversation this season -- considering he dropped 45 pounds of lard in the offseason and gained most of it back already -- this is definitely a newsworthy story.

Panda had this to say about his rare feat:

"I was tired, but I was happy. It was the first time I've done the cycle in the big leagues, so I have to be happy."

Yeah... we're happy you survived without a little help from an oxygen tank.
