Bryce Harper becomes the youngest player (22 years, 202 days) to hit to three homers in one game in 45 years when he goes deep three times in Washington’s 7-5 win over the Marlins at Nationals Park. In 1969, Red Sox right fielder Joe Lahoud accomplished the feat at Minnesota’s Metropolitan Stadium, being 149 days younger than the Nats’ slugger.

Red Sox outfielder Joe Lahoud bangs out three homers to help beat Minnesota‚ 13 – 5. Lahoud’s efforts cure Tony Conigliaro’s neck ailment and Lahoud will be back on the bench for the game on the 13th against Oakland as Tony C returns to the lineup.
