Phillies slugger Schwarber crossword clue

12 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 17, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
KYLE
KYLE (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Phillies slugger Schwarber” is KYLE. It appears as 12 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 17, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Opposites Attract” by Hunter Murphy, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 15 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with K and ends with E, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
