3 Bryce Harper RF

Harper went 2-for-4 with a grand slam, walk and two runs scored Tuesday against the Cardinals.

Harper broke the game open with a grand slam off Dakota Hudson in the second inning, his seventh home run of the season. It was his first homer in eight contests, a stretch that was marred by 11 strikeouts in 33 plate appearances. Despite a .236 batting average, Harper has gotten on base at a .372 clip and continues to produce excellent counting stats batting out of the third spot in the Phillies' lineup.

Harper went 1-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Nationals.

Harper extended the lead to four in the sixth inning with a single to right field, scoring Zach Eflin. The 26-year-old slugger has gotten off to a slow start at the dish so far this season, hitting .233 with six homers and 21 RBI over 33 contests. His last home run dates back to April 26 against the Marlins.

Harper went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and walk in a 4-0 victory against the Marlins on Friday.

The 26-year-old hasn't struck out in seven straight plate appearances, which is a big deal because he's struck out in more than 29 percent of his plate appearances. While Harper leads baseball with 20 walks, he also has a league-high 34 strikeouts. Harper's on-base (.397) and slugging percentages (.521) are where they should be, but because of all the strikeouts, he is batting just .255. He also has six homers, 17 RBI and 16 runs with a stolen base in 94 at-bats.

Harper went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in an 8-5 victory against the Rockies on Saturday.

The 26-year-old didn't follow up his 5-for-7 night Friday with another multi-hit game, but he did go deep for his fifth homer. Harper started slowly this season, but all of the sudden, he's slashing .289/.426/.566 with 11 extra-base hits, 14 RBI, 14 runs and one steal in 76 at-bats.

Harper went 5-for-7 with two doubles, a run scored and an RBI in Friday's 4-3 extra-innings loss to the Rockies.

After going 3-for-24 in his prior six games, Harper broke out in a big way in Coors Field. He's now slashing .296/.438/.549 through 19 contests as a Phillie with four homers, a steal, 11 RBI and 13 runs.
