Philadelphia Phillies fans in awe of Bryce Harper's monster 2-run homer to start Game 3 of World Series

Philadelphia Phillies superstar Bryce Harper picked up right where he left off in his previous playoff home game, crushing a massive home run in Game 3 of the World Series against the Houston Astros. The pitch was absolutely demolished off the bat and sailed deep into the bleachers. The hit gave the Phillies an early two-run lead over the Astos.

Game 3 of the World Series is important for both teams, and the Phillies struck first. This is how their entire playoff run has gone in 2022, good on the road, and dominant in home games. If this trend continues, this series might not need to leave Philadelphia.

FOX Sports posted a clip of the incredible home run that left fans stunned on Twitter.

Bryce Harper has been the perfect leader for the Philadelphia Phillies through both his play and leadership. His energy is infectious and he always tries to put his team in a position to win. Being able to do so early on in the game makes the rest of the game an uphill battle for the Houston Astros.

The playoff atmosphere in Philadelphia is absolutely electric. The building was practically shaking as Harper's home run ball touched down in the stands. Having fan support like this can go a long way to motivating a team and intimidating the opposition.

Game three of the World Series was delayed by a day because of the rain, but Bryce Harper instantly made the wait worth it. He has been on an incredible postseason run and it is becoming increasingly difficult to bet against him. He is clearly proving that he is the best player in this series that is loaded with superstar talent.

It seems absurd to expect a player to maintain this insane pace, but Harper has proven capable thus far. He is hitting a ridiculous batting average of .404 over 14 playoff games. This is an incredible feat, especially when considering the talent of his opponents.

If Bryce Harper keeps playing like this, it will go down as one of the best playoff performances in MLB history. It could even end with Harper raising the World Series trophy over his head.
