Phillies are on top three to one thanks to Bryce Harper look at his head down look at that eyes down on the ball they say that you never really see the ball off your bat but I mean that's as good as it gets when it comes to seeing the baseball Harper gets a chance as a result of the air giving this guy a chance to add on to the 4-1 score on this one-1 pitch sends one in the air deep to right field and long gone Upper Deck Home Run Bryce Harper and the two out air hurts badly six to one Phillies well he's hit great at home he's hit great with Runners and scoring position and when he gets one middle middle he's even greater and that was a no doubt second deck Homer Jamie Westbrook the batter Line Drive caught by Harper and he'll just run down Des a line out double play and that'll do it for the Red Sox here in the second they are hitting some baseballs hard tonight against Christopher Sanchez but nothing to show for it there goes Harper he got a good jump there's not going to be a play Harper's going to get a stolen Bas for this is what we talked about with a guy like Burns and Wheeler pitch and you know it's going to take being aggressive on the Bas pass trying to steal a base and hopefully get a hit with Runners scoring position and Bryce like you said top he had a heck of a jump and no chance Bryce Harper flyed to Center his first time up that one's hit out toward left it's hit pretty well Pro Bar's going back toward the infinity side it's gone a solo home run for Bryce Harper is 16th of the year and this ball game is tied at one B thought he could Rush him with a
