In six games last week, Harper hit .609 with a 1.261 OPS, three home runs, six doubles, eight RBIs, 14 hits, four walks and just two strikeouts in 28 plate appearances. The Phillies won five of seven games, winning series in Seattle and Los Angeles.
The Phillies were without Harper on Sunday after he received a PRP injection in his right elbow to treat a torn ligament. The Phils’ bullpen collapsed, blowing a 4-3 lead in the ninth to lose, 5-4, to the Dodgers but still left L.A. with an impressive series win.
