Kyle Schwarber’s mammoth homer gives Cubs 3-0 lead on Pirates

Gerrit Cole, meet Kyle Schwarber. Kyle Schwarber, meet Gerrit Cole.

In the third inning of Wednesday’s NL Wild Card game, Schwarber obliterated this Cole changeup, knocking it all the way out of PNC Park.

Schwarber also drove in the first Cubs run of the game with an RBI single. And the Pirates bats can’t solve Jake Arrieta. Not good news for Pittsburgh.
