Is Kyle Schwarber on the Verge of Shattering Phillies’ Home Run Records This Season?
He hit 40 homers in the Phillies’ first 112 games — one more than Howard over the first 112 games of 2006. His .965 OPS is third in baseball and he leads baseball with 94 RBIs. Schwarber has played every game this season, almost exclusively as the designated hitter.
Perhaps no moment so far this season has been as automatic an entry into the season highlight video as his game against Baltimore. Schwarber already had connected on a two-run home run deep in the second deck. The crowd of 41,099 fans were in a Schwarbomb frenzy when he came to the plate in the sixth. He heard the MVP chants as he sent one into the right-center seats off Yaramil Hiraldo for his ninth career grand slam and second of the season.
