Here we go again.
Arcia turned on a 2-1 sinker from Phillies pitcher Aaron Nola and smacked it 387 feet into the left field seats for his 12th homer of the season. As he circled the bases, the 30-year-old shortstop turned his head to stare at Harper.The moment reignited a rivalry between the two players that stemmed from the 2023 NLDS between the Phillies and Braves., getting doubled up at first base after outfielder Michael Harris II robbed J.T. Realmuto of an extra-base hit in the ninth inning.
Two days later, Harper hit two homers in Game 3 and stared down Arcia at shortstop on both trips around the bases. The Phillies took that game 10–2 and won Game 4 as well to take the series and send Atlanta packing.Arcia returned the favor Wednesday night, albeit choosing a far less significant moment compared to doing so during an emotional playoff series. But a fun moment nonetheless.Tom Dierberger is a staff writer and editor on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
