Kyle Schwarber recorded his 1,000th career hit in the Philadelphia Phillies ' 12-5 victory over the New York Yankees on Friday. Schwarber's milestone hit was a two-run home run that tied the game 2-2 in the top of the fifth inning. It was his 35th home run of the season.

Philadelphia Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber reached the milestone of 1,000 career hits on Friday against the New York Yankees.

So, this sums it up: A Phillies fan caught Kyle Schwarber's 1,000th hit. The fan and two friends gave the ball to Schwarber after the game. When Schwarber traded it for two signed baseballs, he asked if they wanted a third. They said they just want him to re-sign w/ the Phillies.

Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber will be a free agent after this season, and fans are getting restless that a deal hasn’t been reached despite mutual interest between Schwarber and the team.

After winning the World Series in 2008, and getting back to there the next season, former Phillies GM Ruben Amaro traded for Roy Halladay, Roy Oswalt and Hunter Pence and signed Cliff Lee as a free agent to go along with a star-studded lineup.

After a stellar start to the 2025 season on the heels of a World Series defeat, the New York Yankees (56-46) have fallen out of first place in the AL East as they have struggled of late while the Toronto Blue Jays have surged.
