WELCOME BACK TO THE LINEUP, KRIS BRYANT. That’s about as good as it gets.
Out with an oblique issue after myriad other issues, Bryant came back tonight – rather quickly from the oblique – and singled in his first at bat. Then, with two outs and the Cubs about to squander another bases loaded opportunity, Bryant unloaded:

That had to feel so good. Let’s see some more.
Also, this is what I tweeted four hours ago when KB was announced as back in the lineup:
Kris Bryant is gonna hit a mfin home run tonight. You can hold me to this.
