Phillies Place Harper and Schwarber on Injured List
News summary

The Philadelphia Phillies have placed All-Star first baseman Bryce Harper and designated hitter Kyle Schwarber on the 10-day injured list following injuries sustained during Thursday night’s 7-4 loss to the Miami Marlins. Harper strained his left hamstring while running to first base, and Schwarber strained his left groin making a throw from left field. Both players underwent imaging that confirmed the strains but indicated they avoided significant injury, with potential returns before the All-Star break. Despite these setbacks, the Phillies remain optimistic due to their strong season performance, holding the best record in the majors. The team has recalled infielder Kody Clemens and outfielder Johan Rojas from Triple-A to fill the roster spots. Manager Rob Thomson and Harper emphasize a 'next-man-up' mentality to maintain their lead in the NL East.
