Bryce Harper Booms Longest Home Run of His Career vs. Philadelphia Phillies


Bryce Harper really liked this pitch from Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Aaron Harang.

He really, really liked it.

On a 3-1 count in the bottom of the fifth inning, Harper sent Harang's offering all the way over the center field fence and off the wall. There was absolutely no doubt about it from the moment it left the bat—Phillies shortstop Freddy Galvis didn't even move.

The estimated distance: 461 feet.

Harper's home run tied the game at 3-3. Philadelphia went on to win, 5-3.
