00:01Alex Bregman has finally found his power in Chicago.
00:05The 32-year-old hit three home runs in a game for the first time in his career,
00:09leading the Cubs to a 12-6 rout of the Nationals.
00:12He finished with a career-high seven RBIs.
00:14Performance is the highlight of a remarkable second-half surge.
00:17Since July 27, Bregman is hitting .388 with six home runs and 17 RBIs,
00:23leading all of MLB in hits during that stretch.
00:25He has nine homers in 26 games after hitting just seven in his first 92 games as a Cub.
00:30Bregman signed a five-year, $175 million deal in January.
00:34He struggled early, admitting he was god-awful with runners in scoring position.
00:38But a mechanical adjustment has unlocked his power.
00:41He's now playing like the two-time World Series champion the Cubs paid for.
00:45Major Craig Council called him a special player when he's going right.
