Bryce Harper Clubs Two Home Runs, Stays Locked in at the Plate
Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper led the team in their 9-1 win over the visiting Athletics at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday night. Harper finished the contest 3-for-4 at the plate with two long balls, three RBI, three runs scored, and a walk to raise his season average to .286 and his OPS to .948 in the process. The 33-year-old All-Star's first homer came in the third inning off starter Luis Severino, before taking reliever Tyler Ferguson deep in the eighth frame. The eight-time All-Star, two-time MVP, and four-time Silver Slugger winner is seeing the ball extremely well right now in early May, as he's gone 8-for-19 (.421) with three home runs, three doubles, four RBI, six runs scored, and a stolen base in five games so far this month. Harper now has back-to-back three-hit performances and is as locked in as they come. Keep riding his bat while it lasts. Overall in 2026, Harper is slashing .286/.377/.571 with a .948 OPS, nine homers, 23 RBI, 22 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 133 at-bats.
