Chicago jumped out to a commanding lead, and Philadelphia’s offense struggled to mount a response, finishing with just two runs.
Kyle Schwarber remains on the verge of MLB history, needing four more home runs to reach 350 for his career, a milestone that would place him among the 106 players to achieve the feat.
StatMuse highlighted Schwarber’s standout showing against Chicago, noting he went 2-for-3 with two homers, three RBIs, a walk and a hit-by-pitch, a performance that helps explain why he’s among NL players to score four runs in a game this season.
Schwarber’s career arc began when he was selected fourth overall in the 2014 MLB Draft out of Indiana. He spent six seasons with the Cubs, helping them capture the 2016 World Series title over the Cleveland Guardians.
Philadelphia now shifts focus to a new challenge, heading into a series against the Atlanta Braves starting Friday as they look to rebound from this 11-2 setback.
