WATCH: Cubs' bullpen goes bananas after Bryant smashes 448-foot no-doubter


by - Senior Writer -

CHICAGO — Running the gamut of dances, the Chicago Cubs' bullpen put on quite a show after Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant drilled a 448-foot solo bomb to straightaway center field on Friday. Putting the Cubs up 3-0 over the St. Louis Cardinals, Bryant's dinger flew off the bat at 108 miles per hour with a launch angle of 31 degrees.

Skying a no-doubter onto the roof of the batter's eye beyond beyond center field at Wrigley Field, Bryant, who returned to the lineup on Friday after dealing with wrist and shoulder issues for a few days, proved that he has a full bill of health heading into the final weekend of the regular season. As a result, the Cubs' relief-pitching staff did not hold back when celebrating in the bullpen.
