Players to Watch: Philadelphia Phillies vs. Boston Red Sox
Philadelphia Phillies
Kyle Schwarber — DH. 17 home runs and 28 RBI to lead the Phillies. Schwarber has been the most reliable source of power in the lineup, and his pull-side power remains a key factor at Fenway Park.
Brandon Marsh — LF. Hitting .343 with a .371 OBP and a .493 slug. Marsh has quietly been the Phillies’ batting average leader, and the contact-first profile travels well against pitchers who don’t generate swing-and-miss.
Boston Red Sox
Wilyer Abreu — RF. .305 average, .383 OBP, .474 slug. He has been the most consistent bat in the Boston lineup and is the one regular keeping the Red Sox in games.
Ranger Suárez — SP. A 2-2 record, 2.77 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 32 strikeouts over 39.0 innings. Suárez faces his former team at Fenway Park and gives Boston a steady left-handed option against a Phillies lineup led by Kyle Schwarber and Brandon Marsh.
