Harper drives in 2 in return to lineup, Phils beat Pirates

Harper drives in 2 in return to lineup, Phils beat Pirates

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Bryce Harper hit a two-run single in his first at-bat after a 52-game absence due to a broken left thumb, helping the streaking Philadelphia Phillies to a 7-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday night.

Harper grounded out twice and lined out sharply in his three other at-bats in his first action since being hit on the hand by San Diego Padres left-hander Blake Snell on June 25. The reigning NL MVP batted cleanup as the designated hitter and helped the Phillies win their fifth straight game.

Philadelphia, which went 32-20 without Harper, began play in second place in the NL wild-card race.

Rhys Hoskins singled, doubled and drove in a run for the Phillies.

Bryan Reynolds, Ben Gamel and Rodolfo Castro homered for the Pirates, who have lost six straight and 12 of 14. Pittsburgh dropped to 47-78.

Harper jogged out for warmups to loud cheers and "Let's Go Harper!" chants 25 minutes before first pitch. The ovation from the announced crowd of 30,546 was deafening when Harper was introduced 20 minutes later. The cheers grew even louder, accompanied by a standing ovation and "M-V-P!" chants, when he stepped to the plate with no outs and the bases loaded in the first.

  • With a 2-2 count against Bryse Wilson (2-8), Harper lined a hard two-run single into right field.

    Harper went 5 for 8 with two homers, two doubles and six RBIs in a pair of rehab starts at Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Phillies had planned to keep Harper in Triple-A through Saturday, but his return to the big leagues was moved up after his walk-off double for the IronPigs on Wednesday night.

    The fans weren't the only ones happy to see Harper back in Philadelphia. His wife, Kayla, posted a photo on social media of her seated at Citizens Bank Park wearing a shirt with multiple images of Harper on it. She captioned the post, "wearing my heart on my sleeve."

    Phillies starter Bailey Falter (2-3), filling in for injured right-hander Zack Wheeler, gave up three runs on five hits in six innings with six strikeouts and no walks. Brad Hand pitched a scoreless ninth for his fifth save.

    Harper's two-run single was part of Philadelphia's four-run first that was helped by second baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes' throwing error on Kyle Schwarber's grounder to lead off the game. After Harper's hit, J.T. Realmuto's grounder and Nick Castellanos' single scored two more runs.

    Wilson didn't return after the first after allowing four runs, three earned, on five hits.

    Philadelphia went up 6-0 in the second on Hoskins' RBI single, and he later scored in the frame when shortstop Newman mishandled Realmuto's grounder.

    Newman's two-run homer in the fourth and solo shots by Castro in the fifth and Gamel in the seventh, both leading off the innings, pulled Pittsburgh within 6-4 before Bryson Stott's RBI single in the bottom of the eighth.

    FANS IN THE STANDS

    With Harper back, the Phillies drew about 10,000 more fans than they averaged in their four-game home sweep of the Reds this week. They averaged 21,227 during that series.

    TRAINER'S ROOM

    Pirates: Rookie RHP Colin Holderman was placed on the 15-day IL with right shoulder soreness after giving up five runs on three hits without getting an out in his last start on Wednesday. RHP Yohan Ramirez was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis to take Holderman's place.

    Phillies: CF Brandon Marsh (sprained right ankle) made his second rehab start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday night. Marsh, who was injured on Aug. 16, could return to Philadelphia's lineup on Saturday. ... Wheeler is expected to miss two starts with right forearm tendinitis.

    UP NEXT

    Pirates RHP Tyler Beede (1-3, 4.13) opposes Phillies RHP Kyle Gibson (8-5, 4.30) on Saturday night in the second contest of the three-game set.
