Bryce Harper makes up for costly Phillies blunder with game-tying homer in thrilling win

During Wednesday's matchup in the National League Wild Card Series, Bryce Harper overcame a critical fielding miscue in the seventh inning that initially allowed the Atlanta Braves to pull ahead. After missing a catchable ball hit by Drake Baldwin that resulted in a run and a subsequent sacrifice fly by Matt Olsen, Harper quickly atoned by launching a game-tying home run in the eighth.

Kyle Schwarber also contributed a crucial home run moments prior, and the Philadelphia Phillies ultimately secured a 4-3 victory in 10 innings following an earlier RBI single by Harper in the first inning.
