Cubs’ Pete Crow-Armstrong in Best 34-Game Stretch in MLB History

Pete Crow-Armstrong is on an absolute tear right now.

The Cubs outfield phenom delivered again Friday night, launching an early homer before crushing a grand slam inside the right-field foul pole to fuel Chicago’s comeback win over the Reds.

What PCA is doing isn’t just good — it’s historic. Over his last 34 games, Crow-Armstrong has put together a statistical combination no player in MLB history has matched.

Since this remarkable stretch began with a 3-for-4, two-homer, one-triple performance, he’s compiled:

  • 9 doubles
  • 3 triples
  • 14 home runs
  • 40 RBI
  • 8 stolen bases

According to OptaStats, no player has ever produced those numbers over a 34-game span.

During this stretch, Crow-Armstrong is slashing .331/.348/.750 for a ridiculous 1.098 OPS.

The only minor blemish? Just four walks during this month-plus run. But when you’re hitting everything in sight, who needs walks?

It’s a remarkable turnaround for the 23-year-old, who struggled through much of his first full MLB season in 2024 before finding his groove late in the year. That momentum has clearly carried over.

What makes PCA’s emergence even more valuable is his elite defense. He’s arguably the best defensive centerfielder in baseball right now, giving the Cubs a rare two-way star.

The Cubs are riding this historic hot streak, and baseball fans everywhere are wondering what Crow-Armstrong might do next.
