The Chicago Cubs hit eight home runs against the St. Louis Cardinals, setting a franchise record for most home runs in a game, while tying the MLB record for most home runs hit on the 4th of July.

Michael Busch and the Chicago Cubs turned their holiday into a home run. Eight of them, to be exact. Busch hit three longballs, Pete Crow-Armstrong connected twice and the Cubs went deep a franchise-record eight times to hammer the St.

Crow-Armstrong had a day, going 4-for-4 with two homers and the two hardest-hit balls of the game (a 111.8 mph single in the seventh and a 110.6 mph solo blast in the first). Busch homered three times and drove in five runs.
