Bryce Harper Crushes Extra-Inning Home Run Into Bullpen Bathroom

Hang a pitch to Bryce Harper, and there’s a chance that pitch could end up in the toilet.

Philadelphia Phillies reliever Jeanmar Gomez left a pitch to Harper out over the plate in the 10th inning of Sunday’s Phillies-Washington Nationals game, and the Nats star crushed it, sending the ball well over the fence in right-center field for a solo home run.

The ball bounced once in the Washington bullpen before finally coming to a stop in an usual spot: the bullpen bathroom.

Harper’s homer gave his team a one-run lead in the top of the 10th, but the Nationals’ fortunes quickly went down the tubes from there. Closer Jonathan Pabelbon surrendered a single and two doubles in the bottom of the frame as the Phillies walked off with a 3-2 win.
