Final Score: Cubs 15, Phillies 1
Kyle Schwarber deposited the first pitch that the Philadelphia Phillies saw in the second half of the 2022 season into the right field stands. However, a home run against his former team didn’t prove to be a precursor of what was to come, as the Phillies lost in a pretty brutal fashion to the Chicago Cubs Friday evening, opening up questions about how much longer two veterans will be in red pinstripes for.
Willson Contreras — likely in the waning days of his time with the Cubs — tied the game with a 376-foot home run in the top of the fourth inning.
