Confident Michael Busch a driving force with Chicago Cubs' bats on fire

Posted Apr 21, 2025
The fastball that D-backs starter Zac Gallen sent Michael Busch’s way in the second inning Saturday veered up and out of the strike zone. The way the Cubs first baseman is swinging the bat right now, it didn't matter. Busch attacked the pitch and sliced the baseball high over left field, where it crashed into the second row of Wrigley Field’s bleachers. (MLB.com)
