VIDEO: Willson Contreras Launches Solo Shot vs Giants as Cubs Build on Huge Lead

The Chicago Cubs jumped out to an early 8-0 lead Tuesday afternoon against the San Francisco Giants. Catcher Willson Contreras kept the run parade going with a smooth swing that resulted in a solo home run to push the lead to 9-0, showcasing the offensive prowess that makes him one of the game's most revered backstops.

Contreras' name has been in trade rumors all offseason and those do not appear to be affecting him now that the season is approaching. His home run was his third hit of the game, in just the fourth inning, as the Cubs are making it a rough afternoon for the Giants.
