Binge worthy: Harper's homer pace historic

Harper hit two more home runs Friday night, and he posted the exact same basic stat-line as he did Wednesday afternoon: 3-for-4 with five RBIs.

Here's a more in-depth look at Harper's otherworldly achievements over his past two games:

• At 22 years (plus 204 days) old, Harper is the youngest player in MLB history to hit five home runs in a two-game span, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. He surpassed Mark McGwire, who had done so at the age of 23 years, 270 days.

• Harper is the 34th player since 1914 with five homers in a two-game stretch.
