Cubs 2, Reds 2: Busching the envelope

The Cubs and Reds played to a 2-2 tie Thursday night in Goodyear, Arizona, dodging raindrops that hit much of the Phoenix area during the day and evening, cancelling the games at HoHoKam Stadium (Guardians/A’s) and Salt River Fields (Royals/Rockies).

The main story from this one was new first baseman Michael Busch hitting his first home run in a Cubs uniform.

And Busch absolutely demolished this baseball [VIDEO].

That home run likely would have gone about 440 feet had it not smacked off the tall hitters’ background at Goodyear Ballpark.
