Mike Schmidt did in the top half of the first. Phillie pitcher Randy Lerch hit the second in the same half inning.
King Kong was the first Cub to homer in their half of the inning.

I just realized that I missed Bob Boone's in the first for Philly. But Schmidt still hit the first one. Kingman the first Cub one.
