“We’ve got four more,” the two-time NL MVP told the fans during an on-field celebration, and they roared again. Harper hoped the homer set the stage for other highlights on deck in the next couple of weeks. Harper then lined a 2-2, 98 mph sinker the opposite way, into the left-field seats as another sellout crowd of 45,485 shook the stadium. Realmuto began the eighth with a single off reliever Robert Suarez. “I don’t really care about this but MLB is making me do it,” Harper said. Harper was named NLCS MVP and he as parked the trophy on a dais, he made it clear the personal awards meant nothing to him without a ring.

The World Series will begin Friday night at the home of the AL champion. Houston held a 3-0 lead over the New York Yankees in the ALCS. Harper, Hoskins & Crew are coming for a most improbable World Series championship. Rhys Hoskins also hit a two-run homer in Game 5 of the NL Championship Series to spark Philadelphia’s improbable run to the pennant and a shot at its first World Series championship since 2008. “I hit the ball, and I just looked at my dugout and kind of it’s for all of them,” Harper said. One game-winning home run that about seemed destined from the moment he came to the plate in the eighth inning with the Phillies and their fans beckoning Bryce to deliver in the clutch just one more time. Harper slugged his fifth homer of the postseason, a two-run blast in the eighth inning that turned Citizens Bank Park into a madhouse, and the $330 million slugger powered the Phillies past the San Diego Padres 4-3 on Sunday and into the World Series for the first the time since 2009. Harper has made the monumental feat of hitting a baseball look so easy in the postseason and with the NL pennant at stake, he delivered with the defining moment of his four-year Philadelphia career. Harper made the scene possible because he rose to the moment Philly demanded of him from the time he signed the richest free-agent deal in baseball history. With that, Harper walked toward the dugout and raised his arms in jubilation to the soundtrack of Phillies fans screaming “MV3! MV3! " The Phillies scrambled inside for the Broad Street Bubbly that awaited in the clubhouse. “C’mon, let’s go inside! Let’s go!” he ordered. PHILADELPHIA - Bryce Harper broke up the Phillies postseason party on the mound and directed his team to where the true revelry was about to begin for the National League champs.
