King Tuck! π Kyle Tucker’s best moments with the Cubs in 2025! π»
Tucker hits it well left field. Conforto back at the wall. It’s off the wall. Kyle Tucker to second and a two out double here in the ninth is his first hit in a Cubs uniform. Yeah, better swing there. Had on it. We mentioned earlier that last night early especially. He was pulling off the ball and that’s been an issue all all spring but starting to show some positive signs here. The fly out to right center then going the opposite way there. Ping the wall. Two-2 hit well right field. Kyle Tucker first homer as a Cub and they have the lead. It is 31. No doubter to right for number 30. You know it’s just a matter of time and we talk about the irrelevance of spring training statistics and performance and he really scuffled throughout spring training. But the lights are on. It’s time to go and he’s going. Well, an opportunity with one out for Kyle Tucker infield about halfway and that is hammered right field way back. Forget it. Kyle Tucker will touch them all. A threerun homer and the Cubs lead it six-2. Bang. Yeah, he took a swing at that one like he knew it was coming. And that’s I’m really enjoying watching him hit because sometimes he’s really patient. Other times he looks to ambush. That’s a home run from Kyle Tucker. His fourth straight game. He’s never done that before in his career. And the Cubs have a 4-2 lead. And there was no doubt about it. Wow. JD, I can get used to watching this guy hit. Yeah, boy. This is fun. You talk about a guy that’s absolutely locked in. He did not do much at all in spring training. The balls, two strikes to Kyle Tucker. in the air. Right fail way back. It is gone. All hail King Tuck. First homer at Wrigley Field as a Cub and it’s into the bleachers. Cubs add to their lead here in the second. Your official welcome to the city of Chicago moment for Kyle Tucker. He’s all good now. And that fast ball is alive tonight. The pitch swing in a ball looped out into right center field. Tucker, he’s stuck to landing and he steals a hit from Mookie Betts. He was in the air for about 10 minutes. Kyle Tucker, a gold glove type play. One- nothing and a three. Here’s Tucker swinging a drive right field way back. We are on top. Kyle Tucker 1211 Bedum the crowd that was booing moments ago are losing their minds. Anybody want to pitch today? N good skip. I’ll take the day off. And no doubter from Tucker. Muny hits it in the air to right. Tucker is back at the wall. Jumps up. He caught it. Hold your breath moment there for Shota as that ball almost gets out of here. And a nice play by Tucker twisting and turning but ultimately hauling this ball in. Two-2. That’s it. Well, right field way back. It’s gone. Kyle Tucker, you are the man. Two-run shot, seventh of the year. Comes within one. It’s a 109 game. It’s not fair to expect a player to come through every single time he comes up, but that’s the sense you get with Tucker. Kyle Tucker into right center field. Reynolds back at the wall and it is gone. The King has left the castle. Kyle Tucker home run number eight. Second homer of the inning. And just like that, we’re tied to two. had two big huge swings of the bat here in the top of the fist. Swanson and now Tucker going deep. That’s the vintage Kyle Tucker right there. The pitch up the middle base hit and we are tied. Tucker just like that delivers. 55 birds fly fish swim. Kyle Tucker hits wasting no time. First pitch fast ball 107 mph. Fly ball right field. Tucker dealing with the sun and the wind. And who caught it? Ken Tuck able to haul it in. It’s been that kind of day in the outfield. Not easy. 3-1 driven into right center field and hit well. Carpenter after it, not going to get it. It’s in the gap. Racing around third is Shaw. He will score and Tucker has an RBI double and yeah, they do punch back. The Cubs have tied it. Uh ends a scoreless streak for Scooble now and it comes off the bat of one of the league’s best. I mean, he is a bonafide superstar in Kyle Tucker. I mean laying off two really tight pitches and then he gets one he can handle. One and one at Mundo Sosa Boyd the pitch and a little flare into right field and that’ll fall for a hit. Tucker will pick it up quickly. Fired a second tag out at second. Kyle Tucker cuts down at Mundo Sosa trying to turn it into a double. That was gorgeous. Would have been a one out double. instead two outs, nobody on because of this effort here from Tucker. Good, strong on the money throw. Dansby applies the tag. The 1-1 line drive, base hit right field. Tucker will charge. Throw to the plate. Kelly waits. Tag out at the play. Kyle Tucker. Welcome home as he gets him at home. Great throw on a hop and cuts down Issach Paradis. First and third, still only one out. And Tucker drills this one to right. It’s gone. A line drive. Three-run shot off the bat of Kyle Tucker in his return to Houston. Third home run of the inning for the Cubs. It is now 72 Chicago. Fly ball right field. Tucker back back some more near the wall. Whoa. And he makes the catch. And hello into the Ivy. Ball really carrying well here today. So Kyle continues to track this one. He knows he’s getting close. You see him start to feel with that right hand for the wall just before he makes contact. Up he goes to haul it in. Remember that old commercial? I was waiting for Andre Dawson to pop out. French horn or something. Pitch in for a strike to Cody Bellinger who’s homered not once but twice. Drilled to right field. Tucker back back some more. jumps and he caught it. Little payback. Good grief. So, it wasn’t PCA, it was Kyle Tucker and he robs Bellinger of what would have been his third homer. It would have been his first three homer game of his career. Great grab by Tucker. Hooks it in the air to left field and a sliding catch by Kyle Tucker. Easy. That was sick. Kyle Tucker now with the Cubs enjoying a great season and enjoying a great catch. The way towards right. Tucker into a slide and he makes the catch. Did it in left in the Allar game and he does it in right today. Two outs here in the second. Yeah, you know that wall could be trouble over there and so had to slide for this one anyways and just good defense. I love the face on Eco, too. It’s like, did you know? Did you know there’s Tucker making a sliding catch? He can go out there with his bull blow on and make the catch. Let’s play King Tuck. Fly ball right field. Tucker and up against the wall. He makes the catch. Nice grab, Kyle Tucker. I mean, that is not an easy play. squeezing up against the padding and able to haul it in. Takes off. Suzuki gets hung up. Thrown to the plate and Tucker is in and they steal a run. 6 nothing. A little bit surprised they threw through there and India didn’t do an aggressive enough job of charging this play. Threw him a little bit of a sinker. That didn’t help. The Cubs pull this off a couple times. Fine’s got to be getting frustrated with as many stolen bases as he’s allowed here tonight. Kyle Tucker destroys one to right. It is back. It’s gone. King Tuck NBA jam. Heating up. Second homer in as many games. 20th of the year. Two-run shot and it’s two to nothing Cubs. Couple days off to reset. Maybe that’s all it took. What up? Tucker again deep right field. Adele to the wall. It is good. King Tuck. Multi home run game. Two-run home run in the third and now a threerun shot in the six. It is 10 to nothing Cubs. Oh, baby. Without the shallow right center, Kyle Tucker into a slide makes the catch. Well, they catch the baseball in the Chicago Cubs. We talked about how good the infield is. Their outfield is solid also. Well, they have gold glove winners everywhere. Here’s Tucker out to left field going back to the track. It’s gone. Tucker home run number 22. Opposite field. Threerun shot. It is three to nothing Cubs. I think that feels amazing. Tucker with a drive to center. Perkins going back. He looks up. It’s gone. Is that the knockout blow that sends this series to a fifth game? Kyle Tucker with his first extra base hit of the postseason and it’s 5 nothing. You haven’t seen a lot of slug from Tucker since he came back from the injury. So that’s a welcome sign for the Cubs.

King Tuck, despite his struggles in certain parts of the season, was a great addition to my Cubs roster this year. Really wondering what heβs going to do in this offseason
Kyle will look great in a Dodger uniform. π
Dodgers champ forever!
Hoping this lad is family. DM me for tickets destination π. Good luck for '26 boyyo
Really f-king tired of the Cubs cutting loose players like Schwarber, Bellinger, and Tucker, while Billionaires are lining their pockets at the fans' expense. I've loved my Cubs for more than 45 years, but I'm tired. I think most fans are. The front offices of so many teams would rather have empty seats listed for $300 than fill them with people who love the game, and it's really disheartening.
Would love to see Tucker in LA but not for the lengthy contract he is seeking. They can spend less to bring back Bellinger or add pitching and be ok.
Kyle wasnβt even the best hitter or player on the Cubs this year.
Kyle Tucker's performance, great dude. Perfect video for the stove league.
I do not see the hype about this guy. Most of these highlights are from the first 2 months of the season
