Kyle Schwarber wakes up in the morning ready to swing.
The Chicago Cubs designated hitter continued his incredible return from two torn knee ligaments with a remarkable performance at the plate in Game 2 of the World Series. Schwarber extended the Cubs' lead to 4-0 in the fifth inning with his second RBI single of the game, scoring Ben Zobrist. Chicago ended the fifth up 5-0 thanks to a three-run outburst against Cleveland's bullpen.
Earlier in the game, the 23-year-old Schwarber gave Jake Arrieta his first insurance run with a single that plated Anthony Rizzo.
Schwarber - already the Cubs' all-time postseason home-run leader - now has 10 career October RBIs, leaving him just one shy of teammate Kris Bryant for the franchise lead.
