David Bote's Grand Slam Lifts Cubs over Nats

Iowa Cubs Infielder Puts on a Show

Chicago Cubs prospect David Bote hit a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the 2nd inning to give the Iowa Cubs a 4-1 victory over the Nashville Sounds on Friday night. The home run was Bote's first of the season and helped the Iowa Cubs improve to 2-0 on the young season.

Bote, who was called up to the Chicago Cubs last season, is back with the Iowa Cubs this year and is looking to make a strong impression. The 25-year-old infielder is known for his versatility and his ability to hit for power and average. He is expected to be a key part of the Iowa Cubs' offense this season.

The Iowa Cubs will be back in action on Saturday night when they take on the Omaha Storm Chasers. First pitch is scheduled for 6:05 p.m. CT.
