Philadelphia Phillies slugger Bryce Harper hit his 300th career home run on a go-ahead blast against the Angels on Wednesday.
With the blast, the 30-year-old Harper tied Phillies legend Chuck Klein for 157th all-time.Philadelphia went on to lose Wednesday’s game 10-8.Harper has a supernatural feel for the moment, and it’s fitting that a milestone career homer put the Phillies ahead in the eighth inning as they chase another postseason berth. Harper is the fourth-youngest hitter in baseball history to reach 300 homers.
His familiar power stroke is back. — Harper, after hitting his milestone homer, came onto the field for a curtain call. He raised both arms to the sky and looked around the whole ballpark. Then, he kissed the “Phillies” script across his chest. It might seem like pandering at times, and maybe it is, but Harper has connected with Philadelphia on a level that few stars have.“He said earlier in the year that he wished he started his career here,” Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Wednesday morning.
