WATCH: Schwarber smacks his third homer of spring |
The Chicago Cubs are rolling through the Cactus League action but fell to the Oakland A's 7-2 on Sunday afternoon. The North Siders' record is currently an impressive 11-4-3 this spring.
During the contest, outfielder Kyle Schwarber and catcher Chris Gimenez smacked back-to-back homers in the second inning. "Hammered to right," Cubs broadcaster Len Kasper said about Schwarber's baseball. "Way back...GONE! A home run for Kyle Schwarber." It was the third homer of the spring for Schwarber, and he is currently 9-for-27 with four RBIs, five walks, three stolen bases, .438 on-base percentage, and 1.178 OPS. He has shown off his power this spring with five consecutive starts with an extra-base hit including three homers in his last five games. Check out the homers below. Maximum efficiency out of @kschwarb12 and @ChrisGimenez5. #EverybodyIn pic.twitter.com/zwalov6dDe
