Game 139 - Harper Leads Long Ball Barrage

2022 Topps Opening Day
Bomb Squad #BS-9
Phillies 8
, Nationals 5
Game 139 - Saturday Night, September 10th in Philadelphia
Record - 77-62, 3rd Place, 10 1/2 games behind the Mets

One Sentence Summary:  Bryce Harper hit the first of four Phillies home runs in this 8-5 win over the Nationals.

What It Means:  The Phillies still hold the second Wild Card spot, a half game ahead of the Padres and 3 1/2 games ahead of the Brewers.  They'll go for a series sweep if the rain can stay away long enough today.

What Happened:  Ranger Suarez picked up the win, throwing 6 2/3 innings and allowing four runs on seven hits.  Harper connected for his first home run since June 9th, a span of 27 games dating back to before his lengthy injured list stint.  Nick Maton, Brandon Marsh and Kyle Schwarber all followed Harper with home runs of their own.  Marsh was 3 for 4 with a pair of RBIs.

Featured Card:  I'm happy to feature a Harper can whenever I can.
