Russell leads all National League shortstops with 80 RBI this season and trails only Houston s Carlos Correa (86 RBI) for most RBI by a shortstop in the majors overall, Addison is on pace for 24 homers and 105 RBI this year. Russell is the first Cubs shortstop to reach 80 RBI since Ernie Banks in 1961, when Mr. Cub played 104 games at shortstop in 1962, Banks played 149 games at first base overall, Russell is just the third Cubs shortstop in franchise history to reach 80 RBI, joining Banks (seven times) and Roy Smalley (85 RBI in 1950). K-BOOOOOM: Including a solo homer last night, Kris Bryant has totaled 58 home runs in the first two seasons of his career, a franchise record and already tied for the 10th most home runs in major league history for a player s first two seasons Joe DiMaggio holds the all-time record with 75 homers over his first two campaigns. 100: Kris Bryant also last night became the first major leaguer to reach 100 runs scored this season by doing so in the club s 124th game, Bryant became the fastest Cub to 100 runs scored since Sammy Sosa in 2002 (team s 121st game) in fact, Bryant is only the 10th Cub in franchise history to reach 100 runs scored by the club s 124th game Kiki Cuyler holds the franchise record by scoring his 100th run in the club s 100th game in 1930 thanks to Ed Hartig. START ME UP: Cubs starting pitchers are 13-1 with a 1.89 ERA (27 ER/128.2 IP) in 20 games in August, totaling 15 quality starts the next best rotation in terms of ERA this month is Boston at 2.75, while the next closest National League club is Pittsburgh, well behind with a 3.54 ERA by starting pitchers this month. THAT S A RELIEF: Even after utilizing 12.1 innings from their bullpen the last three games, Cubs relievers have still thrown by far the fewest innings of any bullpen in the National League with 354.2 innings pitched, 3.2 innings ahead of next-closest Washington and its 358.1 relief innings in all of baseball, only Toronto has thrown fewer relief innings than the Cubs at 347.0 innings. WHAT S THE DIFFERENCE?: Chicago s +212 run differential is by far the highest in the majors Washington is second at +144, 64 runs behind the Cubs the Cubs have allowed the fewest runs in the majors (424) while plating 636 runs, third-most in the majors behind Boston (683) and Colorado (662). IN AWE OF AUGUST: The Cubs are 16-4 in August, good for an.800 winning percentage the Cubs best August in franchise history occurred in 1932 when the club went 22-6 (.786). Chicago began the month of August 10-0, marking just the second time the team started a month with at least 10-straight wins in June of 1885, the team began the month 18-0 and finished with a 21-2 mark thanks to Ed Hartig for his research assistance.
