Watch: Yan Gomes Solo Home Run Gives Cubs Early Lead in Philly

Today’s game is being broadcast on Peacock and it requires a premium subscription to watch, which is not super cool and is also why many fans are choosing to listen to the game. That’s not such a bad thing when we get to listen to the legendary Pat Hughes and his sidekick Ron Coomer.

Yan Gomes has been a solid backup this season for the Cubs and today he showed why. He just hit a solo home run in the top of the 3rd inning in Philadelphia to give the Cubs an early lead. This 400-foot blast is Gomes’ fourth homer of the season.
