Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber hit a towering solo home run to give Chicago a 6–4 lead over St. Louis in Game 4 of the NLDS.

With Kevin Siegrist pitching in the bottom of the seventh inning, Schwarber connected on a 1-1 fastball and sent it over the scoreboard in rightfield, and out of the ballpark.

According to Statcast, the ball traveled 419 feet. It left Schwarber’s bat at 113 MPH at an angle of 35 degrees.

The Cubs can advance to the NLCS with a win over the Cardinals.
