This kid is good.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Christopher Morel added a two-run towering homer to put the exclamation point on a 10-1 lead over the Phillies on Friday night.

It was his sixth homer of the season in only nine games. The last Cubs player to hit six homers in only nine games was Gabby Hartnett in 1925.

The ball traveled an estimated 371 feet with an exit velocity of 98 MPH with a launch angle of 37 degrees.
