Busch hit a leadoff homer in Chicago’s four-run first inning in Game 3 of the team’s NL Division Series against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. He became the first player in major league history with multiple leadoff homers in a single postseason series, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Busch also hit a leadoff shot against Freddy Peralta in Chicago's 9-3 loss in Game 1 on Saturday. The Cubs scored three times in the first inning of Game 2, but the Brewers rallied for a 7-3 victory .
