Bryce Harper broke out of a slump with a career-best four extra-base hits — and then issued a reminder about his place in the game.
Bryce Harper collected three doubles and a home run, Kyle Schwarber belted his 29th homer of the season and left-hander Jesus Luzardo threw seven shutout innings as the Philadelphia Phillies salvaged one win in their three-game road series against the San Francisco Giants with a 13-0 shellacking Wednesday afternoon.
Bailey’s inside-the-park homer marked the Giants’ ninth walk-off win this season, a mark that leads all of baseball. Among the other eight walk-offs, the only one that can match the pure lunacy of Bailey’s was Heliot Ramos’ Little League home run, one that required the Texas Rangers to commit two throwing errors.

The San Francisco Giants' Patrick Bailey did something that hadn't been done since 2016: Hit an inside-the-park walk-off home run.
The Phillies wasted another strong start by pitcher Cristopher Sánchez with a lack of offense in a loss to the Giants on Monday night.
Patrick Bailey bounced a three-run, inside-the-park home run high off the right-field wall with one out in the last of the ninth inning Tuesday night, delivering the San Francisco Giants a 4-3 walk-off victory over the visiting Philadelphia Phillies.
