VIDEO: Jason Heyward Adds To Cubs Offensive Breakout With 2-Run HR

-

The Chicago Cubs jumped all over Luke Weaver on Thursday, scoring six runs in the first two innings. Then, in the fifth inning Jason Heyward clubbed his second home run of the season, hitting a two-run shot to right field to give the Cubs an 8-1 lead over the St. Louis Cardinals.

This was Heyward’s second hit of the game and it was no cheap dinger either.

Through five innings, everyone in the Cubs starting lineup has reached base at least once and everyone except for Willson Contreras recorded a hit.

Heyward, along with Javier Baez, Anthony Rizzo and Kyle Schwarber each have two hits so far, as the Cubs lead 8-1.
