Will Kyle Stowers' Two-Homer Game on Wednesday Get him Going?
Miami Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers led the way on Wednesday in the team's 12-4 win over the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, going 4-for-5 with two home runs, a double, five RBI, and a strikeout to boost his season average to .226 and his OPS to .719. Stowers clubbed two of the team's five long balls on the day for his second multi-homer game of the 2026 season. The 28-year-old former second-round pick by the Baltimore Orioles in 2019 out of Stanford University was a first-time All-Star in 2025 in his first full year in Miami, when he hit .288/.368/.544 with a .912 OPS, 25 home runs, 73 RBI, 61 runs, and five steals in 117 games played. Stowers hasn't been nearly as good so far in 2026, though, as he's slashing .226/.308/.411 with seven home runs, 27 RBI, and 23 runs scored in 51 games after his outburst on Wednesday. Hopefully, his two-homer game against the Phils will get him going. Stowers was 9-for-49 (.184) with two homers, a double, a triple, 11 RBI, four runs, five walks, and 20 K's in 13 games in June going into Wednesday.
