Moonshots, that’s what Kris Bryant does best and boy did he give Chicago Cubs fans a treat on Saturday. In the first inning, Bryant blasted a 451-foot home run off the video board in left field for his first homer of 2017.
The reigning National League MVP crushed this ball.

Wind is blowing out at more than 20 mph at Wrigley Field, but this ball was going out no matter what.
