Kyle Schwarber is suddenly the hottest hitter in baseball
NY Post
Kyle Schwarber is starting to prove last season was just a fluke.
The Nationals outfielder, who is leading off, might be the hottest hitter in baseball right now. In Thursday’s matchup against the Marlins, Schwarber opened the 7-3 win with a home run, his fifth lead-off homer over the past 12 games. He added to that performance when he sent a 0-2 pitch flying to dead center for a three-run home run just one inning later. In the last five games, Schwarber has blasted eight home runs. Going back further, he now has 13 homers in the past 12 games.More Related News
