The Perrysburg (Ohio) High School junior had zero homers in his high school career.

CONNECTTWEETLINKEDINCOMMENTEMAILMOREA high school baseball player in Ohio has done what no one in Major League Baseball history has done before: hit for the home run cycle.

He hit a solo homer in his first at-bat, added a three-run shot in his second and a two-run blast in his fourth at-bat. In his fifth at-bat, Borer hit a grand slam. In his sixth and last appearance, Borer popped out with the bases loaded, according to The Toledo Blade. No player in MLB history has hit for the homer cycle, though several have come close in the recent past. Former Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez hit three homers in the first four innings of a game against the Angeles on April 26, 2005, but wouldn't add the solo shot he needed to complete the cycle. Reds second baseman Scooter Gennett hit four homers in a game on June 6, 2017, but missed on a three-run shot to complete the set.

In February, Arkansas softball player Danielle Gibson notched the cycle home run in a win against Southern Illinois-Edwardsville.
