MLB fans astonished at Kyle Schwarber's ability to perform in the biggest games: "All time highlight reel" "He's torn up every league he's played in"

Kyle Schwarber's power at the plate is unreal. He would have been the talk of MLB last season if it weren't for Aaron Judge's record-breaking year. Schwarber hit 46 home runs to lead the National League last season. He was the only player to come within shouting distance of Judge, who hit an AL-record 62.

While his World Baseball Classic numbers weren't as great as he would have liked them to be, he still hit two home runs. His latest home run off of Yu Darvish in the championship game on Tuesday added to a long list of clutch home runs for Schwarber.

Schwarber has homered in nearly every big game he has ever played going back to collegiate summer league play. That's the type of player you want on your team. He doesn't let the moment get too big; he shows up and performs.

He'll be key to the Philadelphia Phillies' success this season, as he must carry the load until Bryce Harper returns. Harper had elbow surgery in the offseason and isn't expected to return until after the All-Star break.

"All time highlight reel" one fan tweeted.
"Lmao he's torn up every league he's played in," another fan tweeted.

Fans can't get over the fact that he shows up in the biggest games. No matter what he's batting or who he's facing, if it's a big game, Kyle Schwarber will perform.

While there's no evidence, fans believe he's been doing this since he started at the youth level. They couldn't imagine there was a fence in little league that could hold him.

The Phillies had a busy offseason upgrading their roster. Their biggest addition was signing shortstop Trea Turner. Turner is one of the best shortstops in the league. That's especially true after his stellar offensive performance throughout the World Baseball Classic.

They also added Taijuan Walker to their starting rotation. The Phillies needed another back-end starter, and Walker fits that perfectly. They also buffed up their bullpen by adding Gregory Soto, Craig Kimbrel and Matt Strahm.

Philadelphia is looking to win its first division title since 2011. If they can get consistent offense from guys like Trea Turner and Kyle Schwarber, they should be in the running. The NL East will be a division that fans will want to watch. The division title may come down to the last regular season game like it did last season.
