Willson Contreras CRUSHES One to Put the Cubs Back on Top (VIDEO)

Chicago Cubs

Responding immediately after the Padres smacked a couple dingers off of Kyle Hendricks (aka The Obligatory Kyle Hendricks Homer Inning), Sergio Alcantara got his second knock of the night, and after a failed sac bunt attempt by Hendricks, Willson Contreras gave the Cubs back the lead.

WILLLLLSONNNNNN with a 445-foot MONSTER shot:

You couldn’t see it in the clip there, but Contreras added a turn and look and stare down of his friend and former teammate Victor Caratini, who’d homered the previous inning. That was fun.
