    Jeff Bagwell became the first Astro since 1992 to hit for the cycle.

    Correct.

    So we know that Bagwell, A. Cedeno and C. Cedeno hit for the cycle as Astros.

    However there have been 4 players in Astro history to hit for the cycle. Name the 4th player.

    In the Astros history there has actually been 5 cycles. And one of the four players mentioned before has hit the cycle twice can you name him?
