Pete Crow-Armstrong hit three home runs against the Cincinnati Reds on August 29. The Cubs won 17-5. He drove in six runs. The RBI came in ascending order: one, two, three. Each swing scored more men than the one before it.
His hardest contact came off the bat at 105.8 mph. The farthest ball traveled 444 feet. He had four hits on the afternoon: the three that left the park and a sharp line-drive single to right fielder Héctor Rodríguez, between the second and third home runs.
This was the 14th three-homer game of the 2026 season. He came to the plate six times. Three swings sent the ball over a wall. Three did not: the single to Rodríguez, a pop out to shortstop Elly De La Cruz, and a groundout to second baseman Ivan Johnson, who threw to first baseman Sal Stewart. Carson Kelly took third on the play.
The ground ball to second was the last swing of the day.
