Looking At Harper
Harper is in the middle of his 15th season at the MLB level (and 8th with the Phillies).
The two-time MVP is currently batting .257 with 116 hits, 25 home runs, 72 RBIs, 81 runs and seven stolen bases in 129 games this year.
Nearly the only thing missing from his legendary baseball career is a World Series title.
Looking At The Phillies Right Now
The Phillies come into Saturday as the second-place team in the National League East with a 71-58 record in 129 games.
They have gone 8-2 over their last ten games (and are 36-30 in 66 games at home).
Following two more games with the Cardinals, the Phillies will head on the road for a series with the Seattle Mariners on Monday in Washington.
