The hit, with an exit velocity of 110.8 mph according to Statcast, was his most powerful of 2025.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">439 feet<br>110.8 MPH<br><br>Bryce Harper CRUSHED his 350th career homer! \ud83d\ude24 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/me04kzSI6q\">pic.twitter.com\/me04kzSI6q<\/a><\/p>&mdash; MLB (@MLB) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MLB\/status\/1948161778657231044?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 23, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\nJust before, his teammate Kyle Schwarber also hit a home run with a two-run homer, giving the Phillies an early 3-0 lead. Schwarber already has 34 home runs this season and began the day among the best in MLB with an OPS of .934.\n\nHarper, 32, joins an elite list of just eight active players with at least 350 home runs, including figures like Giancarlo Stanton (434), Mike Trout (395) and Manny Machado (360). However, none of them reached that mark as young as Harper.\n\nDespite a slow start to the season and an absence due to injury caused by inflammation in his right wrist, Harper has regained his best form. In his last nine games, he is batting .429 with four home runs, nine doubles, seven RBIs, and an impressive OPS of 1.529.\n\nWith Schwarber on fire and Harper regaining his form, the Phillies could have one of the most feared offenses heading into the season&#8217;s final stretch.m","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PHILADELPHIA \u2013 On a night filled with power at Citizens Bank Park, Bryce Harper wrote a new chapter in his brilliant career by hitting his 350th home run, becoming the youngest active player to reach that number in the Major Leagues.
