Tuesday was a brutal day for the Philadelphia Phillies. They were swept in a double-header against the division-rival Washington Nationals, with the first game officially eliminating the Phillies from postseason contention and extending their playoff drought to eight years. The Nationals held on to defeat the Phillies 6-5 in the second game of the double-header, with the Phillies forced to watch their division rivals celebrate clinching one of the two National League Wild Card spots.
If there was positive to takeaway from Tuesday, it was the tape measure home run that Bryce Harper hit off the bench in the second game of the double-header.
