Phillies' Kyle Schwarber: Makes history in Wednesday's rout
Rotowire
Schwarber went 4-for-5 with two solo home runs in Wednesday's 11-1 win over the Marlins.
While he paces the National League in long balls with 56 and sits two homers back of Ryan Howard's club-record 58 with four games to go, Schwarber set a major-league record in Wednesday's rout with his third-inning shot off Ryan Weathers. An incredible 23 of Schwarber's blasts this season have come off left-handed pitching, breaking the MLB record for a left-handed hitter that had been held by Matt Olson (2021) and Hall of Famer Stan Musial (1949). Schwarber suddenly has a very realistic chance at setting a new Phillies record for home runs in a season, having gone yard six times in the last 10 contests.

Phillies' Kyle Schwarber: Breaks slump with historic game
Rotowire
Schwarber went 4-for-6 with four home runs and nine RBI in Thursday's 19-4 win over Atlanta.
Schwarber entered Thursday stuck in an 0-for-20 slump across his previous six games. Philadelphia's barrage started with his solo shot in the first inning, and he added a two-run blast in the fourth and three-run shots in the fifth and seventh frames to become the 21st player to hit four homers in a single game. He's the third player to achieve the feat in 2025, joining Eugenio Suarez and Nick Kurtz, which makes this the first season where it has happened more than twice. Atlanta has been on the receiving end of two of those games this year. Philadelphia also has a major-league record four players in the four-homer club, as Schwarber joins Ed Delahanty (1896), Chuck Klein (1936) and Mike Schmidt (1976) in the exclusive group. The mammoth performance vaulted Schwarber into sole possession of the National League lead in homers at 49, which is a career high for him and puts him one back of Seattle's Cal Raleigh for the major-league lead. Schwarber leads MLB with 119 RBI while adding 94 runs scored, 10 stolen bases and a .248/.370/.586 slash line through 134 contests.
