Fuming Bryce Harper dismissively waves off umpire after brutal strike three call in Phillies loss
Harper dramatically waved off the umpire after he was rung up in the bottom of the eighth inning of the Phillies’ 8-2 home loss to the Angels.
Philadelphia won without putting a ball in play in the 10th, as Otto Kemp walked against Jordan Hicks (1-6) to open the frame before a wild pitch moved Kemp and ghost runner Brandon Marsh into scoring position. Following an intentional walk to Max Kepler, Sosa’s bat ran into the glove of catcher Carlos Narvaez on a 1-2 pitch, ending the game.
