How ’bout them Cubbies?
The Chicago Cubs made a big statement in Game 3 of the NLDS, smashing a major league postseason record six home runs en route to an 8-6 win over the St. Louis Cardinals.
Each of the Cubs’ first six batters — Dexter Fowler, Jorge Soler, Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo, Starlin Castro and Kyle Schwarber — sent balls into the bleachers.
