Chicago Cubs backup catcher Tucker Barnhart crushed a solo homer in the third inning against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night.

It was his first homer as a member of the Cubs, and it traveled an estimated 413 feet with a travel velocity of 102.5 MPH.

The homer was only his second dinger since 2021 and only his second extra-base hit this season.
