Kyle Schwarber, Bryson Stott Resting Against Lefty
1 year agoPhiladelphia Phillies outfielder/designated hitter Kyle Schwarber and infielder Bryson Stott are both sitting out on Wednesday against left-hander MacKenzie Gore and the Washington Nationals. Trea Turner is the designated hitter and is batting leadoff, while Edmundo Sosa will start at shortstop and bat eighth for the Phils. Schwarber clubbed two home runs in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader, but he'll get a breather after playing in both games of the double dip. The 30-year-old left-handed power hitter has 30 bombs and 72 RBI, but he's hitting just .183 (77-for-420) on the year. Stott has been impressive in his second MLB season, slashing .302/.346/.438 with 10 homers, 44 RBI, 21 stolen bases and 56 runs scored in 107 games played.
