Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run homer in the second inning against the Reds on Saturday afternoon.

The homer traveled an estimated 437 feet and had an exit velocity of 110.9 MPH. His .211 batting average is now the highest it has been since April 29 and he has six homers in his last 15 games.

It was also his 30th homer of the season as the Cubs have their first multiple 30-homer lefties (Schwarber, Rizzo) in a season in team history.
