The Washington Nationals defeated the Miami Marlins, 7-5, today and made some history in the process. Bryce Harper became the youngest player to homer three times in a game since 1969, at 22 years and 202 days.
To celebrate, Harper is watching the Capitals game. And it seems like he’s wearing shoulder pads. Sure, why not?

Here’s his dingers.
Harper was joined by several of his Nats teammates at Verizon Center.
Nats ace and $210-million man Max Scherzer was in the house with his wife. He got his second win today.

Group picture time!
Please note we didn’t make any unfair jokes about the Nats or pump the Orioles’ tires in this story.
