Kyle Schwarber Crushed a Home Run and Sent Twitter Into a Frenzy

Oct 14, 2015

The Cubs beat the Cardinals 6-4 on Tuesday to advance to the NLCS for the first time in 12 years, but all anyone wanted to talk about was a single play that occurred in the bottom of the seventh inning.

Kyle Schwarber absolutely crushed a solo home run, so much so that Twitter had plenty of jokes as to when and where it might eventually land.

Ball might be on Lake Shore.

Checking.

Congratulations to the White Sox for getting involved in the playoffs as the Comiskey night watchman caught Kyle Schwarber’s homer.

Ball just rolled on outfield at Citi while Matz and Kershaw long toss. I think it was Schwarber's homer #Cubs
