WATCH: Nico Hoerner blasts go-ahead two-run homer vs. White Sox |
Chicago Cubs shortstop Nico Hoerner has made his manager David Ross look very smart.
Hoerner rewarded his manager by penciling him in the sixth spot in the lineup by blasting a two-run homer to put the Cubs up 2-1 in the second inning of Wednesday's game against the White Sox. It was his second homer of the season, and it traveled 407 HAPPY feet to left field with an exit velocity of 106 MPH. The dinger was Hoerner's fifth of his career, and all five have been hit at Wrigley Field. Check out his latest homer below: Go-ahead two-run blast for @nico_hoerner! pic.twitter.com/rP8w4bquSv
