PHILADELPHIA — Kyle Schwarber homered twice, including a grand slam in the Phillies’ eight-run sixth inning in pounding the Baltimore Orioles 13-3 win on Monday night.

Schwarber finished with six RBIs, running his major league-leading total to 94 on the season. The Phillies increased their NL East lead to 1 1/2 games over the Mets, who lost 7-6 to the Guardians in 10 innings.

Schwarber’s first homer of the game was a two-run shot deep into the second deck that tied it at 3 in the third. He heard “MVP! MVP!” chants when he came to the plate in the sixth. Schwarber , the All-Star Game MVP , launched his NL-best 40th of the season into the right-center seats off Yaramil Hiraldo for a grand slam that sent the crowd of 41,099 into a frenzy.
