Stowers, Miami Marlins
Digest more
Kyle Stowers lifts the Miami Marlins to a walk-off win vs. the Kansas City Royals Friday night and opens up on his World Series aspirations.
Their 19-10 record over the last month of play was tied for the most in the Majors. Their star outfielder Kyle Stowers showed up big in Atlanta when he hit a home run for the NL in the All-Star swing-off. They started to look like a club that could close out a series.
Kyle Stowers represented the Marlins at the All-Star Game and has 5 HRs in his last 2 games, meaning he isn't going to be shopped ahead of the trade deadline.
Only one player in MLB history has gone 8 hits, 5 HR, 11 RBI in a two-game span. That was Ty Cobb, on May 5 and 6 in 1925. Stowers' action was made even sweeter because that three-homer game was against the Orioles, the team that traded him and Connor Norby for Trevor Rogers.
