Kyle Schwarber's heartwarming admission for Phillies teammates after historic performance - "I wouldn't go to war with anyone else"

Kyle Schwarber contributed significantly to the home run parade that has powered the Philadelphia Phillies to the World Series. He launched two solo home runs on Tuesday, giving the Phillies a 3-0 lead in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series. Schwarber added another blast to right field in Philadelphia's 5-3 Game 1 triumph.

The American's remarkable home run streak continued Tuesday night, propelling the Philadelphia Phillies to a 10-0 victory against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series.

As reported by NBC Sports, Schwarber said it would not have been possible without his squad and the outstanding players on the team. The 30-year-old added that he would not want to play with anybody else other than his Phillies teammates.

"'I wouldn't want to go to war with anyone else.' FIRE US UP, SCHWARBS," NBC Sports Philadelphia wrote on X.

Kyle also said that he has made a lot of mistakes in his career in the past but has been fortunate to play really well in the previous three seasons.

"Kyle Schwarber on having success while hitting lead-off: 'I've had a lot of at-bats there. Don't get me wrong, I've sucked at it. I've had a lot of trial and error, and luckily, over the last few seasons, the last probably three seasons, it's been pretty consistent in that spot'," ESPN's Jesse Rogers wrote.
