If there’s one thing Kyle Schwarber knows, it’s the long ball.
WEATHER UPDATES: Latest news on status of Padres vs. Phillies Game 5
The Phillies slugger is one of MLB’s most prodigious power hitters. He blasted a career-high 46 moonshots during the 2022 regular season to lead the National League.
He has continued that in the postseason with a fearsome power stroke that strikes fear in the hearts of opposition pitchers.
Schwarber has three dingers in four NLCS games against the Padres, one of which was this 488-foot cannon shot, the hardest-hit home run ever recorded in the postseason.
Schwarber added to his total Saturday by launching a shot deep into center field to push Philly’s lead to three runs in an eventual 10-6 Game 4 victory. He seems to rate as good a chance as anyone to be voted NLCS MVP should Philadelphia advance.
