The Philadelphia Phillies can at all times appear to rely on left fielder Kyle Schwarber discovering a strategy to get on base.
Within the backside of the second inning in a highway sport towards the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday, the 32-year-old slugger blasted an 89 mph changeup from Cleveland Guardians beginning pitcher Luis Ortiz into proper discipline for a solo house run. The 392-foot dinger gave Philadelphia a 1-0 lead.
With the homer, the 2022 Silver Slugger has reached a base in 46 consecutive video games, the longest energetic streak within the majors. Within the wild-card period, the one Phillies participant with an extended on-base streak is Bobby Abreu (48 video games in 2000-01), via MLB’s X account.
