Cubs' Jason Heyward: Extends hitting streak to six games in Saturday victory

Heyward went 3-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored in Saturday's 8-2 victory over the Pirates.

Analysis:

The 26-year-old slugger is still surprisingly looking for his first homer in a Cubs uniform, but has now hit in six straight. He's also reached safely in eight consecutive contests, and picked up his average 12 points so far in May. With 97 career homers coming into the season, it figures to be just a matter of time before Heyward begins to see the ball leave the yard.
