In his previous at bat, Kyle Schwarber blasted one 401 feet at 103 miles per hour to center field … for an out.
So, the next time up, as the Cubs were pouring it on, he decided to muscle up just a little bit more:

That one was 425 feet and 105.5 mph. Crushed. Javy Baez is understandably getting all the headlines right now, but don’t sleep on what Kyle Schwarber is doing this season. He’s up to .269/.397/.558 with a 160 wRC+.
