RecapOtto Kemp had a solo homer as the Phillies’ second baseman Wednesday in a 5-3 win over the Tigers.
Kemp was responsible for the game’s two hardest balls in play, with his 109-mph groundout actually eclipsing his 108-mph, 419-foot homer to center. The Phillies currently have two bench spots open for Kemp, Dylan Moore and Johan Rojas, all of whom could platoon against lefties. Kemp has the most interesting bat of the three but also the least defensive value, if that winds up mattering.
