Описание к видео Kyle Schwarber - All Postseason hits (22)

On March 20, 2022, Schwarber agreed to join the Philadelphia Phillies on a four-year, $79 million contract.

Schwarber was awarded NL Player of the Month honors for June of 2022, after batting .272 with 12 home runs (most of all MLB players in June), with an OPS+ of 189 in 27 games. On September 16, 2022, Schwarber hit his 31st home run at the leadoff spot, breaking Jimmy Rollins' Phillies franchise record for most home runs at that spot in the batting order.

In 155 games in the regular season in 2022, Schwarber finished with a .218 batting average, 100 runs scored, an NL-leading 46 home runs, and 94 RBIs. He also struck out an MLB-leading 200 times. He had the highest fly-ball percentage of all major leaguers (51.1%).

In the first game of the National League Championship Series, Schwarber hit a 488 feet (149 m) home run at Petco Park, which was both the farthest hit ball ever tracked by StatCast at that stadium and by a Phillie.[60] Schwarber hit two more home runs in the series as the Phillies defeated the Padres in six games, reaching their first World Series since 2009.

In the 2022 World Series against the Houston Astros, Schwarber batted .250 with five hits and four RBIs in six games. He also had the most home runs of any player in the series with three, including a game-tying solo shot to lead-off Game 5 off of Justin Verlander and a go-ahead solo shot in Game 6 off of Framber Valdez in the top of the sixth inning; however, the Phillies would lose both games and the series.

Schwarber is credited with introducing the song “Dancing on my Own”, by Culum Scott, to the Phillies clubhouse and the song is played after every Phillies home win.
