First of many, hopefully on the Northside.

Chicago Cubs rookie outfielder Owen Caissie hit his first major league homer during Tuesday afternoon's game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

The opposite field homer traveled 381 feet.

Caissie was the youngest Cubs player to hit a homer as a right fielder since Ian Happ in 2017.

“It was pretty cool hearing them chant my name," Caissie told reporters that fans gave him a nice ovation after the homer.
