Bryce Harper Launches Insane Moonshot Over Batter's Eye at Citizens Bank Park

Bryce Harper continues to leave fans in awe this season.

Harper wasted no time in Saturday's Rockies-Phillies matchup at Citizen's Bank Park. He absolutely demolished a moonshot to centerfield off the first pitch he saw and sent it soaring 466 feet over the batter's eye.

Phillies fans went absolutely nuts for the solo shot, which gave Philadelphia a 1–0 lead. Harper signaled to the crowd as he crossed home plate.

According to MLB Stats, Harper's homer is the longest hit by a Phillies player at home in the Statcast era. Some of the 26-year-old rightfielder's accomplishments during his first two months Philadelphia has been overshadowed by his inconsistencies.
