Schwarber Ties Phillies 40-Homer Record

Philadelphia designated hitter Kyle Schwarber launched his 40th home run of the season Wednesday, a three-run shot off Seattle's Bryan Woo that gave the Phillies a 6-0 lead. The 33-year-old slugger now shares the franchise record for most 40-plus homer seasons with former first baseman Ryan Howard.

Schwarber is tied for the most 40-plus homer seasons among active players with Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge. His 227 homers with Philadelphia rank second in franchise history for a player's first five seasons, trailing only Babe Ruth. esporist.org
