Launches ninth Heim went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-0 win over the Phillies.

Impact Heim went yard for the second time in three days and is up to nine homers over 48 games, one shy of the total he achieved in 2021 over 82 contests. Fellow backstop Mitch Garver returned Tuesday after an 11-day stint on the COVID-19 injured list, but he is limited to DH-only duties because of a right flexor strain that prevents him from throwing. Heim will continue to be the primary catcher until Garver's condition improves.
