Kyle Schwarber's Philadelphia Phillies tenure has absolutely obliterated all expectations. The veteran slugger entered the first season of his four-year, $79 million deal in 2022 with 153 home runs over his first seven major league seasons.
The slugger has surpassed that total in the final year of his contract with 180 homers and counting with the Phillies. Schwarber is experiencing a career-best campaign and is knocking on the doorstep of some exclusive Phillies company after his record-setting four-homer night.
Kyle Schwarber will join Ryan Howard as the only Phillies with 50-home run seasons
When Schwarber stepped into the box in the seventh inning on Thursday, everybody following the game had a feeling he would come through with his fourth home run of the night, because that's all he's done this season.
