Schwarber hits two solo shots in win
Kyle Schwarber went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in a win over the Red Sox on Tuesday. He hit both of them off Kutter Crawford, including one on the first pitch of the game, which was also his first time back in Fenway Park since playing for the Red Sox. Neither big fly was in any doubt with both of them being hit over 425 feet at at 110 mph or harder off the bat. The 31-year-old now has 13 home runs and 38 RBI on the season to go along with a solid .240 average.
Hamilton collects two hits in loss
David Hamilton went 2-for-4 with a double in a loss to the Phillies on Tuesday. Hamilton is now hitting .289 on the season and came into today hitting .338 in 23 games since taking over the starting shortstop job for the Red Sox. Given that he also has 13 steals in 42 games, he deserves to be rostered in far more formats.
