Kris Bryant might not ever want to leave Coors Field.

After going 3-for-6 in the Chicago Cubs series opener with the Colorado Rockies on Friday, Bryant followed that performance by setting a pair of personal marks with his home run in the fifth inning Saturday.

Not only did Bryant extend his career-high home run tally to 31 with his three-run shot to dead center off rookie Jeff Hoffman, but the ball traveled 471 feet, marking the longest home run Bryant has ever hit in the majors, according to ESPN Stats and Info.
