The Philadelphia Phillies had a tough loss against the Miami Marlins, but what’s even worse is the potential loss of Bryce Harper due to a hamstring injury. The former MVP had to leave the game after an awkward step resulted in clear discomfort. This injury comes as left fielder Kyle Schwarber also left the game with groin tightness.
Manager Rob Thomson didn’t have any immediate updates on Harper’s condition, stating that more information would be available on Friday. Schwarber’s injury, on the other hand, was described as precautionary, likely caused by an off-balance throw from the outfield.
Both Harper and Schwarber have been having a strong season so far, with Harper leading the NL in All-Star voting. The Phillies are hopeful that Harper will be able to recover in time for future games despite the uncertainty surrounding his injury. Losing him for any significant amount of time would be a major blow to the team.
