WATCH: Bryant jacks his third home run of night with 410-foot dinger


Cole Little Cole Little  ·  Senior Writer ·  

For the second time in his career, Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant put together a 3-homer performance against the Washington Nationals on Friday. Going yard in three consecutive innings, Bryant tallied homer number three on a 2-run jack in the top of the ninth that put the Cubs up 12-4.

The 410-foot no-doubter marked the 11th home run of the year for Bryant, and it flew out to left field after leaving the bat at 108 miles per hour. Cubs left fielder Kyle Schwarber, who walked in the previous at-bat, was scored on the dinger. Nationals reliever Matt Grace was victimized by the round-tripper, as Bryant tagged him for a home run on a slider thrown over the plate.
