Following a split series with the Reds that gives way to a West Coast road trip, here are five Phillies thoughts currently on my mind... If the Harper family adds another child to the bunch, Harper homering in the following game is the lock of the century. Harper's 2024 campaign has been a bit up and down, but after his two-hit performance on Thursday, his OPS is now .835. How about this Harper note... he has more MVPs (2021 National League, 2022 NLCS) as a Phillie than All-Star appearances (just 2022) now in his sixth season with the franchise.
The Phillies jumped out to a quick lead and Zack Wheeler overpowered once again in a 5-0 win to split the 4-game series against the Reds.
With two outs in the top of the third inning and a runner on second, Harper launched a two-run home run 384 feet to right-center field. Moments before the home run, the broadcast picked up a few Reds fans chanting “Overrated” and “Big Whiffer” at Harper. “[Alec Bohm] was laughing because he goes, 'Right when he said it, Harper's going deep.' Harper's home run gave the Phillies a 4-0 lead en route to a 5-0 win over the Reds and extended his hitting streak to seven games.
