Philadelphia Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber hit his MLB-leading 40th home run Wednesday, a three‑run shot off Seattle starter Bryan Woo that put the Phillies up 6‑0. The blast tied former first baseman Ryan Howard for the most 40‑plus homer seasons in Phillies history and also matched Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge among active players. Schwarber finished with two hits, including a lead‑off double, as the Phillies routed the Mariners 6‑0.

The 33‑year‑old, who posted 56 homers last season, now has 227 homers with Philadelphia—second only to Babe Ruth (235) in a player’s first five seasons with a club. His career total stands at 380 homers. Matt Olson (Braves) and Yordan Alvarez (Astros) trail Schwarber in the league race with 36 homers each.
