Kyle Schwarber connects with a solo home run to right-center field, giving the Phillies a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 1st inning

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?

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.

Philadelphia Phillies legend Ryan Howard broke down an interesting hypothetical Home Run Derby between himself and outfielder Kyle Schwarber.

Typically, there are two types of Home Run Derby participants. There are the burly sluggers like Pete Alonso, and there are the wiry elite athletes like Ken Griffey Jr. De La Cruz falls into the ladder category, but he also hits the ball harder than most of the players in that archetype.
