The Chicago Cubs don’t, by a far stretch, have the game’s most robust farm system. However, that did not stop one of their top prospects from stealing the show at the Futures Game Sunday afternoon in Denver.
Outfielder Brennen Davis, who recently earned top billing in the Cubs’ rankings at FanGraphs, flexed his bat, helping to lead the National League side to a resounding victory.
Hitting two home runs on Sunday at the Futures Game propelled Davis — currently in Double-A — into an atomic field of just three total players who have hit multiple home runs in the Futures Game since its inception.
