This is the first time I've heard it applied to a team's accomplishment instead of an individual's. How often has a team hit for the cycle in one inning? Someone must know.

I believe that it happens often enough for it not to be officially recorded as a 'record'.

Good point, and good question. I suspect they used the term "hit for the cycle" in reference to the team's performance just to show how dominant they were for that inning.
