Watch: Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong has big day vs. Brewers

It is only May 2, but it is starting to feel like 2016 all over again for Chicago Cubs fans. The Cubs are currently among the best teams in the league, and they are getting production from so many different players.

Chicago blanked the Milwaukee Brewers 10-0 on Friday thanks to an early onslaught of runs in the first two innings. The Cubs led 9-0 after two innings, and that was more than enough breathing room for the rest of the game.

The nine runs in the first two innings were highlighted by a grand slam from first baseman Michael Busch and a solo home run from centerfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong.

The homer for Busch was his sixth of the season and Crow-Armstrong's homer was his seventh. There was more to come from him later in the game. For now, take a look at the grand slam from Busch.

Chicago was held scoreless from the third inning until the seventh. That's when Crow-Armstrong decided he hadn't done enough hitting yet.

He launched his second home run of the game and eighth of the season to push the Cubs' run total to double digits.

It is already the second multi-home run game for the Cubs centerfielder this season, and he is inching closer and closer towards his first appearance in the All-Star Game.

With continued production up and down the lineup, Chicago is primed to make another postseason one similar to the one in 2016 that took it all the way to a World Series championship.
