Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Jose Bautista is cementing himself as one of the franchise's all-time greats.
Already among the Jays' single-season and career leaders in home runs, RBI, walks, slugging, OPS, and WAR, Bautista reached a major milestone on Monday against the Chicago Cubs, belting his 200th home run with the club.
It was also a timely blast, coming with two runners on base and stretching a 2-0 lead to 5-0. It was also Bautista's eighth home run in his last 12 games, and his team-leading 32nd of the season.
It was also a freaking laser.

Bautista becomes just the fifth player to hit 200 bombs in a Blue Jays uniform, joining Carlos Delgado (336), Vernon Wells (223), Joe Carter (203), and George Bell (202).
