Blasts 31st home run Tuesday
Busch went 2-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 10-3 win over the Mets.
Analisi
Busch has been on a power surge with five home runs across his last 11 games, pushing him to a career-high 31 long balls for the season. The left-handed slugger continues to do most of his damage against righties, as he's sporting an .875 OPS and has hit 27 of his homers in those matchups, though Wednesday's shot came against New York southpaw Sean Manaea.

Reaches 30-homer plateau
Busch went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Reds.
Analisi
Busch took Cincinnati starter Zack Littell deep in the third inning, giving him 30 homers in a season for the first time in his MLB career. The Chicago first baseman has been on a power surge lately, as he now has four long balls across his last eight games. Busch should remain a key offensive cog for the Cubs as they head into the playoffs, though he figures to remain on the bench when the team faces a lefty starter.

On bench against LHP
Busch is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Reds.
Analisi
Busch will dodge a same-hand matchup with Nick Lodolo as Carlos Santana bats seventh and plays first base. Busch is 9-for-30 (.300) with three home runs in his last eight games.
