Schwarber’s massive homer was so impressive, Bryce Harper was left looking astonished from the dugout trying to grasp what he just saw.

Japanese ace Kodai Senga will opt-out of his deal and pursue a MLB deal, the Red Sox an option?

Harper also hit a homer in the game. His homer gave Philadelphia a 1-0 lead. The All-Star hit a 368-foot homer in the fourth inning.
