Kris Bryant hits three homers, Cubs pancake Reds 11-8
This is the Reds getting Kris Bryant out weeks ago. It did not happen on Monday. - Matt Marton-USA TODAY SportsStill, though, pancakes are good. I would and will eat them.
The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game
Kris Bryant socked three dingers - all of which carried longer than your Tiger Woods 2004 drives - doubled twice, and generally terrorized Cincinnati Reds pitching for roughly the everyth time ever. It was the first time since 1913 that a player belted three homers and doubled twice in the same game, which is pretty much the only statistic that can make a 5 for 5, 4 R, 6 RBI game seem small in comparison.
Kris Bryant was the star of this game. I cannot deny that.
