Philadelphia Phillies star Kyle Schwarber made history during the MLB All-Star game, helping the National League to a win over the American League.

The lefty stepped to the plate when a 6-6 tie after nine innings sent the midsummer classic to the first "swing-off" in the game's history. Schwarber efficiently used his three swings to launch three homers and beat the American League 4-3 in the "Home Runs For The Win" contest that decided the game.

Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber won MVP of the 2025 MLB All-Star Game after helping the National League beat the American League in the first-ever swing-off.

The Philadelphia Phillies could make a major splash at the MLB trade deadline by acquiring elite closer Emmanuel Clase from the Cleveland Guardians in a blockbuster deal.

The Phillies criticized MLB after two of their pitchers weren't named replacements but Jacob Misiorowski, after five starts, made the team.

The MLB draft is long — 20 rounds, divided over two days. The first three rounds — 105 picks total — will take place Sunday night beginning at 6 p.m. Philly time. The rest of the draft will wrap up Monday beginning at 11:30 a.m., which you can stream on MLB.com.

Everything the Phillies have done this season, everything they will do in the second half, is framed around the World Series. They want to win it. They need to win it.

It marked the first time the Phillies had selected three pitchers with its first three draft picks since 1994.
