Chicago Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong delivered an impressive performance at Busch Stadium on Saturday night. In the eighth inning, with the Cubs leading 3-1, Crow-Armstrong hit his seventh home run of the season, further asserting his dominance at the plate throughout the contest.
Crow-Armstrong faced St. Louis pitcher Gordon Graceffo, sitting on a 1-0 count, when Graceffo left a fastball over the plate. Crow-Armstrong took advantage and launched the ball into the section of shirtless St. Louis Cardinals fans, known as the Tarps Off Crew.
A fan attempted to return the home run ball onto the field but failed, hitting another spectator in the process.
Despite the chants of ‘overrated’ from the crowd, the Cubs’ star rounded the bases enjoying the mix of boos and cheers. His long ball proved pivotal in a 6-1 victory for the Cubs.

Beyond his home run, Crow-Armstrong had a standout game, contributing with four hits out of five at-bats, including a double. This marked his first multi-hit performance since May 8. His efforts helped the Cubs move ahead in the series, setting the stage for Sunday’s rubber match.
This matchup at Busch Stadium highlighted the rivalry between the Cubs and Cardinals. The Tarps Off Crew, comprised of shirtless fans, adds a unique atmosphere at the stadium, enhancing the spectacle of the game.
