The Chicago Cubs are showing off some power.

During Sunday's game against the Reds, Yan Gomes smacked a 420-foot solo homer to the upper deck to tie the contest at 4-4.

However, the Cubs were not done as Christopher Morel hit a solo homer the very next batter to put the Cubs up 5-4.

The dinger traveled an estimated 394 feet with an exit velocity of 104.3 MPH.
