费城人队球员凯尔·施瓦伯在艾奥瓦州迪尔斯维尔的梦幻田野棒球场参加特殊赛事中表现出色,于首局和第四局各击中一支本垒打,其中第二支本垒打飞入玉米地——正是1989年电影《梦幻田野》的取景地[1]。这位33岁的强力击球手的精彩表现帮助费城人队以7:1的比分战胜明尼苏达双城队[1]。
施瓦伯在本赛季表现火热,已领导大联盟击中37支本垒打[1]。这场胜利使费城人队在争夺国联季后赛外卡第三个位置的竞争中向前迈进,目前领先亚利桑那队半场[1]。施瓦伯职业生涯共击中377支本垒打,曾在2016年帮助芝加哥小熊队赢得世界大赛冠军,并被选中四次全明星队[1]。
Philadelphia Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber hit a pair of home runs at the iconic Field of Dreams ballpark in Dyersville, Iowa, leading his team to a 7-1 victory over the Minnesota Twins [1]. Schwarber connected for homers in both the first and fourth innings, with his second blast sailing into the cornfield—the famous backdrop from the 1989 film that inspired the special event stadium [1].
The 33-year-old power hitter has led Major League Baseball with 37 home runs this season and has hit 377 home runs across his career [1]. Schwarber expressed eagerness to watch the classic film "Field of Dreams" with his children while reflecting on his accomplishment at the storied venue [1]. Schwarber's contributions helped the Phillies secure the third and final National League wild card playoff position, moving them half a game ahead of idle Arizona [1].
Twins right fielder Luke Kinchele also homered in the losing effort [1]. Schwarber was part of the Chicago Cubs' 2016 World Series championship team and has been selected to the All-Star Game four times [1].
