PHILADELPHIA — Before he launched a 440-foot homer that he followed with a 448-foot homer, Bryce Harper smacked a slider to dead center. He missed the barrel. He knew it and looked disgusted. He jogged to first base as Julio Rodríguez caught the fly ball, then clapped his hands a few times. “Just missed it,” Harper said.

Zack Wheeler underwent surgery and his return to the Philadelphia Phillies for the postseason is unclear after manager Rob Thomson said he has "no timetable" for the right-hander's return.

Now that was the kind of start the team needed when hearing about Zack Wheeler. Ranger Suarez, having some questions floating around his recent performances, turned in a start last night that felt like vintage Ranger.
