Looks good to me.  Here’s the TV look:

Five pitches. Three swings. One homer. Of course he homered.

UPDATE: Make it two homers. The second, a three-run opposite field blast to left, marked the fourth time in five plate appearances Harper reached base.

Okay, that’s enough. Let’s get ’em up here. September is coming.
