Because Su\u00e1rez was hit on the left hand by a fastball in the eighth inning of the game, the NL used Kyle Stowers as an alternate.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ONIXPG5NQJFHVG5KWKDU2IQM2M\">According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, travel plans impacted starters\u2019 ability to participate in the swing-off.<\/p>\n<p id=\"A2QGY3JRMVBTNFJBD4BXQTP5KY\">Schwarber homered on all three swings to overcome a two-home run deficit.
