Summary
Kyle Schwarber went 4-for-5 with three home runs and six RBI Saturday, powering Philadelphia's 15-3 blowout of the Mets.
Two of those blasts came in the third inning and both traveled at least 450 feet, making Schwarber the only player in the Statcast era to hit multiple 450-foot homers in the same inning.
A two-run shot in the seventh completed the fifth three-homer game of Schwarber's career and pushed his season total to a major-league-leading 28.
The surge fits a broader hot stretch: Schwarber has hit safely in eight of his last nine games, with five homers, nine RBI and nine runs in that span.
For the season, the Phillies slugger is batting .254/.368/.595 with 49 RBI and 49 runs across 329 plate appearances.
