On May 9th 1993 Mark Grace about 1/2 way through his 12 year stint with the Chicago Cubs hit for the cycle against the San Diego Padres at Wrigley Field in Chicago. This is one of those games that it is very fashionable for Chicagoans to say they were at. I know I wasn't, as it was the only year in my life so far that I did not set foot on American soil. I was in Russia telling people about grace, but not the ballplayer. God's grace is always enough. The Cub's came up short despite of Grace that day losing to the San Diego Padre's 5-4.
