Giving the Chicago Cubs their first lead of the day against the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday, Cubs second baseman
Addison Russell lined a 2-run homer to the opposite field in the bottom of the fourth. The dinger made the score 3-2 in favor of the Cubs and came on a fastball thrown by Reds starter Tyler Mahle.
Leaving the bat at 104 miles per hour, the 2-run bomb, which plated catcher Victor Caratini, soared 414 feet out to right-center. Russell now has two home runs and four RBI this season. ?@Addison_Russell? needed this -- And so did the #cubs ??!!! ? pic.twitter.com/MQ6WHd22Hr
