Bryce Harper of Las Vegas hit another home run on Saturday. It was his 25th of the season already.
It wasn’t a flare. It was like an M-80 firecracker. There was a real loud noise.
Harper hit this latest home run off the Giants’ Madison Bumgarner, which is noteworthy, because Bumgarner is pretty good. Harper hit the two-run homer into the bullpen on the Fourth of July using a bat with stars on the barrel.
Which made it even more noteworthy.
