El Mago was at it again.
Coming into tonight’s game against the Cincinnati Reds, Cubs shortstop Javier Baez was tied for the league lead in RBIs with Eugenio Suarez with both players sitting at 92 RBIs. Not only did Baez overtake Suarez for the RBI lead, he did it in true El Mago fashion by blasting a f*cking moonshot in the bottom of the third.
This 481-foot bomb was the longest home run of the Cubs 2018 season and the second longest home run in the MLB.

Cubs broadcaster Doug Glanville said it best — “I don’t even remember Sammy hitting a ball out there.”
