Phillies' Bryce Harper is 1st in MLB this season with prodigious home run feat originally appeared on The Sporting News Bryce Harper reminded the baseball world how special he is on Monday night. The Philadelphia Phillies slugger did something that no one else has done this entire MLB season.

Trea Turner had four hits, including his first home run at home this season, Bryce Harper homered twice and the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Seattle Mariners 12-7 on Monday night. Turner hit a three-run homer off Seattle starter Logan Gilbert (3-5) as part of a six-run second inning.

PHILADELPHIA — Before he launched a 440-foot homer that he followed with a 448-foot homer, Bryce Harper smacked a slider to dead center. He missed the barrel. He knew it and looked disgusted. He jogged to first base as Julio Rodríguez caught the fly ball, then clapped his hands a few times. “Just missed it,” Harper said.
