WATCH: Willson Contreras crushes monstrous homer vs. A's


by - Senior Editor -

The Chicago Cubs are playing baseball again finally.

In the second inning against the A's on Saturday night, Cubs catcher Willson Contreras connected with a big-time homer to left-center to put the Cubs up 1-0.

It's usually a no-doubt homer like this one when Contreras squares up a baseball.

This was the first homer of spring training for the Cubbies and the initial one on the new Marquee Sports Network.

Check out multiple videos of the homer below:
