“This ball has got a chaaaaaaaance, gone!” The distinct call of Pat Hughes on the radio when the Chicago Cubs hit a home run is held near and dear to fans every season. Hughes has made that call plenty of times this past decade, including some of the biggest round trippers in franchise history.
From 2010 to 2019, between regular season and postseason, the Cubs hit a total of 1,824 home runs. Twice this past decade the team eclipsed 200 homers in a season (2017 and 2019) and 45 of that total came in the postseason.
