Cubs' Jorge Soler, Javier Baez and Kris Bryant hit back-to-back-to-back home runs

Reactions to the rare feat accomplished by the Cubs' trio of young stars.

Highly touted Chicago Cubs youngsters Jorge Soler, Javier Baez and Kris Bryant hit back-to-back-to-back home runs off of Cleveland Indians starter Trevor Bauer in the fourth inning of the teams' Cactus League game on Tuesday.

Soler got it started with a towering shot just inside the left field foul pole and Baez followed by crushing a pitch to almost the same spot. Bryant changed things up a bit, taking Bauer about 400 feet to the opposite field for his second homer of the spring.

It had been a while since the Cubs accomplished that feat in the regular season:

This one, though, was a little more fun considering the players involved and the hope they provide to long-suffering Cubs fans. Speaking of which, the team made a nice gesture in checking up on their faithful followers:

Everybody OK?

Unfortunately, MLB had to go and ruin the fun:

Thanks, Commissioner Manfred. Luckily, Baseball America's Ben Badler brought back the good times:

Meanwhile, the Indians were focusing on more important things. Like, you know, winning -- and their own super prospect, Francisco Lindor.

Everybody's all "Soler/Baez/Bryant" and we're all like "Lindor!" He doubled and scored on Destin Hood's sac fly. Now 7-4 CLE. #TribeSpring

That's right: the Cubs, who entered the day 0-5 in Cactus League play, were still losing despite the hoopla. Sure, spring training doesn't matter, but is there anything more Cubs than that?

Baez, Soler, and Bryant all homer, but the Cubs are gonna lose by six. Ladies and gentleman, your 2015 Chicago Cubs!!!

The Cubs went on to lose, 10-6, falling to 0-6. At least they have this to fall back on:

As for the constant in each of the home runs? He seems to have a pretty good attitude about the whole thing:
