Bryce Harper’s home run against the Oakland Athletics on Saturday wound up being quite noteworthy.
Harper hit an opposite-field solo home run in the seventh inning of Saturday’s game. In doing so, he accomplished the feat of homering against all 30 MLB teams.
Perhaps surprisingly, the A’s were the only team Harper had never gone deep against. He has never hit a regular-season home run against the Houston Astros, but did homer against them in the 2022 World Series.
Having spent his entire career in the NL East, Harper simply has not played the A’s much. He was pretty popular with their fans last year for an amusing reason, but that is probably no longer the case.
