Phillies Turnaround After Thomson Exit

Schwarber’s 24 home runs lead the league, fueling a climb to second in the NL Wild Card, but the offense still ranks near the bottom. The urgency is real — and Schwarber’s fire proves the Phillies are ready to fight for redemption. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
