What humidor? Giants prospect hits for cycle, including massive homer

Giants prospect Adam Duvall does not care about your attempts to limit his offensive production. Duvall played against the Los Angeles Angels Triple-A affiliates, Salt Lake City Bees, on Sunday.

Due to the ridiculous offensive numbers posted in their park, the Bees installed a humidor during the offseason in order to limit production. Duvall appeared to take issue with that strategy. 

It's tough to get an accurate sense of where the ball landed based on the video, but the announcer says it hit a concession stand in left. That concession stand is over 474 feet away from home plate, so that gives you an idea of how well this ball was hit.

The moonshot wasn't enough for Duvall. On top of the home run, he ripped two doubles, a triple and an infield single. That's right, Duvall hit for his first-ever cycle. 

Unbelievably, Duvall did make an out during the contest. He finished 5 for 6, with two runs scored and four RBI. 

Attempts to limit Adam Duvall's power will not be tolerated, and we know that now. Installing the humidor may have made him angry, and you don't want to see him when he's angry.
