WATCH: Contreras hits two-run laser with bat flip

---

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras returned to the lineup against the San Diego Padres on Tuesday afternoon after battling an illness last week.

He made his presence known early in the game with a two-run laser to centerfield off of Jordan Lyles to put the Cubs up 3-0 in the third inning. It was his second homer of the spring and it traveled at least 410 feet.

Check out the video below for the priceless reaction by the opposing pitcher.
