Major League Baseball will host the 2026 ALl-Star Game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, home to the Philadelphia Phillies.

The Los Angeles Angels couldn’t hold onto a mid-game lead as the Philadelphia Phillies surged ahead behind a Kyle Schwarber grand slam and a Bryce Harper two-run homer, ultimately falling 9-5 on Saturday night.

The Philadelphia Phillies aren't ready to say goodbye to their star slugger quite yet as Kyle Schwarber's four-year, $79-million contract expires at the end of the season.

The Citizens Bank Park crowd was on its feet before Kyle Schwarber even stepped in the batter’s box. The Phillies had already scored a run in the sixth inning on a single, hit batsman, a walk and a sacrifice fly.

Kyle Schwarber hit a grand slam in the sixth inning and Bryce Harper capped the scoring with a two-run homer in the eighth, carrying the Philadelphia Phillies to a 9-5 win over the Los Angeles Angels.

Schwarber enters the second half of the season with 30 home runs and 69 RBIs, helping lead the Phillies to the top of the NL East. He’s hit 46, 47, and 38 homers in each of the past three seasons, and he’s driven in over 100 runs two years in a row. Even with his move from the leadoff spot, his power production hasn’t slowed.

Bohm’s injury could complicate the club's approach to the trade deadline. The Phillies could use a mix of players at third in his absence.

The Philadelphia Phillies make it clear the goal is to re-sign Kyle Schwarber, so why isn't there already a signature on the dotted line?
