Raburn Cycle

(n) A feat in baseball rarely achieved in which a batter strikes out, flies out, grounds out and is credited with an error in the field in the same game. Named after Detroit Tigers utility player Ryan Raburn, who since entering the league has achieved the feat at least 37 times costing his team multiple games and possible postseason berths.

The day after Albert Pujols recorded his first Raburn Cycle, the St. Louis Cardinals 1st baseman announced his retirement from the game and promptly burned all of his bats and gloves.
