WASHINGTON -- Bryce Harper has been on fire this week, with four homers in three games in Philadelphia and two more hits on Thursday against Miami.

But the Washington right fielder also took note of Miami Marlins first baseman Justin Bour, who continues to torment his hometown Nationals as he homered for the second game in a row.

Bour hit a three-run homer during a four-run fifth inning as Miami beat the Nationals 6-4 on Thursday.
