Pete Crow-Armstrong hit three home runs and drove in six runs Saturday as the Chicago Cubs routed the Cincinnati Reds 17-5. According to Sportsnet, the homers were his 34th, 35th, and 36th of the season.

Per Yahoo Sports, Crow-Armstrong became the first Cubs player to record three home runs, four hits, and six RBIs in the same game at Wrigley Field since 1974. The outlet also reported that Crow-Armstrong said Sammy Sosa predicted the performance beforehand, telling him he would hit three home runs.

Multiple outlets noted the game adds to Crow-Armstrong's case for NL MVP. CBS Sports reported that Crow-Armstrong is in the midst of a historic August output, while the Associated Press and Sportsnet both characterized the three-homer day as strengthening his positioning in the MVP race.
