As if we needed any more evidence that Bryce Harper is an unreal baseball player, the 25-year-old hit a broken-bat solo home run 406 feet out to right field off of a 99 MPH Jacob deGrom fastball in the first inning of Monday night’s game in New York.
That’s Harper’s MLB-leading eighth home run. He’s also now in a six-way tie for the MLB lead in RBI with 15. Free agency is going to be fun for him.
