Phillies place Bryce Harper on IL with left hamstring strain, keeping him out at least 10 days

Losing a game is bad for the Philadelphia Phillies. Losing Bryce Harper for any amount of time is worse.

The Phillies placed their star slugger on the 10-day injured list due to a strained left hamstring on Friday. Examinations showed a low-grade strain, which means Harper could return when he's eligible to come off the IL on July 9, according to The Athletic's Matt Gelb. However, the Phillies could also decide to give him another 10 days to recover if they keep him out through the All-Star break.
