Cubs’ Pete Crow-Armstrong explains big reaction after grand slam during 6-RBI night

Posted on June 4, 2025

The Chicago Cubs are rolling at the moment. Winners of eight of their last 10 games, the Cubs are a dominant 31-20 on the season. And Friday’s 13-6 victory over the Cincinnati Reds allowed the team to showcase Pete Crow-Armstrong’s breakout campaign.

The 23-year-old center fielder went off on the Reds, going 3-5 with two home runs – including a grand slam – two runs scored and six RBI. Needless to say the second-year player was hyped. And it didn’t go unnoticed.

Asked why he was “jazzed up” after hitting a go-ahead grand slam in the seventh inning, Crow-Armstrong broke down the moment for reporters. “Big inning, big spot I guess. But those are those moments in baseball where, we talk about hype sports like basketball and football and there’s a lot of those kind of exciting plays. I’ve learned that it is nice to be able to enjoy those,” he said, per Marquee Sports Network on X.

Pete Crow-Armstrong and the Cubs celebrate a big win

May 23, 2025; Cincinnati, Ohio, USA; Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong (4) hits a grand slam in the seventh inning against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park.

“Getting to look in the dugout after that ball hits the foul pole is one of the more rewarding things as I go about my day. But I think this is a sport where you should appreciate those moments,” Crow-Armstrong added.

The Cubs’ remarkable success so far this season has been a group effort. The well-constructed team is getting great play out of newcomer Kyle Tucker, Dansby Swanson, Seiya Suzuki and others. But Crow-Armstrong’s efforts in his second season can’t be ignored.

PCA is slashing .287/.319/.589 and is now up to 14 home runs, 13 doubles, 45 RBI, 40 runs scored and 14 stolen bases, And he’s pairing All-Star offensive production with Gold Glove-caliber defense in center. The combination of skills has earned Crow-Armstrong high praise.

It would appear Chicago has a budding superstar on its hands. Which makes the Cubs’ failure to sign Crow-Armstrong to an extension all the more frustrating. The former first-round draft pick turned down a $75 million contract offer from the Cubs, betting on himself this season. So far, that has worked out quite nicely. For him.
