Magnum OPS: Phillies 9, Dodgers 4

What, early on, had the look and feel of another gut-wrenching meltdown, became a signature season performance by the team and a career-defining performance by one of its’ pillars, as the Philadelphia Phillies (68-46) trounced the Los Angeles Dodgers (66-49) 9-4 in the series decider, the first they have taken from an opponent since these same Dodgers in the week before the All Star Game, nearly a month ago.

On July 28, 2019, while playing for the Chicago Cubs against the Milwaukee Brewers, Kyle Schwarber set a career high in RBI with seven behind a grand slam, a three-run home run, went 3/3 at the plate and accounted for 64% of his team’s runs.
