Cubs' Michael Busch hits a home run for the fourth straight game

The Cubs' Michael Busch's home run in the fourth straight game was originally seen on NBC Sports Chicago

Chicago Cubs first baseman Michael Busch is on a roll for the North Siders and continued that success on Sunday against the Seattle Mariners.

Busch hit a two-run shot to right-center field in the fourth inning of the contest, giving the Cubs a 3-0 lead as they look to take the series from the Mariners.

The home run gives Busch long balls in four straight games, with all four coming on the road from Wrigley Field as the team continues its West Coast road trip.

The four-game series is not unprecedented in Cubs history, but it is one step away from breaking the record for most consecutive games with a home run.

According to Stathead, this record of five consecutive games with a home run is held by four players, including Christopher Morel, who accomplished the feat last season. Sammy Sosa, Ryne Sandberg and Hack Wilson have all had five straight games with a long ball.

Patrick Wisdom had two four-game series in the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

Busch will likely have a chance to break the record on Monday when the Cubs visit the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field in Phoenix.

The current MLB record for most consecutive games with a home run is held by Dale Long, Don Mattingly and Ken Griffey Jr., all of whom hit long balls in eight straight games.
