WATCH: Willson Contreras blasts 453 feet homer against Pirates

Chicago Cubs outfielder Willson Contreras absolutely crushed a solo homer to put the Cubs up 1-0 in the top of the first inning against the Pirates on Wednesday.

It was his first homer of the season as it traveled an impressive 456 foot with a velocity of 110.2 MPH off the bat beyond the bullpen in center field.

This Cubs team has been fun to watch early on with Seiya Suzuki, Ian Happ and now Contreras showing off offensively.
