Carson Kelly became the first Chicago Cubs player to hit for the cycle since Mark Grace on May 9, 1993, ending the longest drought by a National League team.

The Cubs have had 1 2 players hit for the cycle in their franchise history, but Kelly is the first to do it since Mark Grace in May 1993. It was the longest active drought by an NL club. Kelly, 30, was born 13 months after Grace's cycle. He signed a two-year, $10 million contract with the Cubs as a free agent in December.

Carson Kelly hit for the cycle and drove in five runs, Michael Busch launched a two-run homer on the way to a career-high four RBIs, and the Chicago Cubs pounded the Athletics 18-3 to spoil their first game in their new Northern California home.
