Before Bryce Harper joined the Phillies starting in the 2019 season, he slugged three career walk-offs against them. Two of the three came via a home run in 2017, whereas the first in September of his 2015 MVP season came via a one-run RBI double in the 12th inning.

Of Harper’s 12 career walk-offs, it would be hard to argue against his walk-off grand slam opposite the Chicago Cubs in August 2019 as being the most memorable, clutch, and impacting for a team. The Phillies produced six runs in the ninth of that summer game, four of which came off of Harpers’ bat.

Surely, there are more career walk-offs in Harper’s career to come, considering he has the 2020 season and at least 11 more to play in red pinstripes. Time will tell if any of those will rival, or exceed in impact on the game as did his walk-off grand slam.
