Phillies second-worst hitter, Ty Kelly, helps them win second-most
Ty Kelly doesn’t hit often, but when he does, he helps the Phillies win nearly every time. This year he has been the team’s best hitter in the clutch.
When the Phillies sent cash to the Blue Jays for Ty Kelly, it was considered a minor move. Philadelphia is Kelly’s sixth organization in Kelly’s nine-year professional career and he didn’t reach the majors until last year after being drafted in 2009. He joined the team as a utility infielder but that’s about all he’s provided.
