26/18/13: Sunday in the NL pennant race: #Cubs lose to Miami, Reds beat Brewers, AZ up late, SD up early. PCA hit HR #40! First Cub since Derrek Lee (2005); first LH Cub since Sweet Swingin' Billy Williams (1970). Division: 26 1st Wild Card & Home Field: 18 Wild Card: 13 #GoCubsGo

Another note on Pete Crow-Armstrong hitting his 40th home run of the season today: He becomes the youngest player in Cubs history to reach the 40-homer mark at 24 years, 165 days old passing Ernie Banks, who was 24 years, 214 days old when he achieved the milestone in 1955.

Most home runs in a season at age 24 or younger, Cubs history: 1955 Ernie Banks: 44 2026 Pete Crow-Armstrong: 40

PCA does it! He ties it up with home run number 40! The first #Cubs player to hit 40 home runs since Derrek Lee and the only the second left handed hitter in franchise historywith 40 home runs, joining Billy Williams!
