Was he just called up?

About two weeks ago, he has 11 home runs in 17 games.


No one before Hoskins had ever hit 10 homers in their first 20 major league games; Hoskins did it in 17. He also started a triple play yesterday. It was kind of a fluke, but whatever: Hoskins also hit his 11th homer of the season a few innings later. As he was the fastest player to 10 homers, he’s also the fastest to 11. And he’s hitting this many homers despite not getting to bat against Phillies pitching.

Yesterday was the fifth straight game he homered, tying a Phillies record. Despite losing 17-2 to the Cubs on Saturday night, Hoskins helped the Phillies take the series from the defending World Series champions.

They vanquished the Dodgers, and Rhys had 4 RBI.
