Bryce Harper of the Phillies takes advantage of Juan Soto and the Nationals taking the day off to claim first place in the Baseball Musings Batter Rankings. Harper posts a three for four evening with two walks, two doubles, and a home run as Philadelphia blow out the Cubs 17-8. That represents the highest game score of the day, an 83. Harper is now slugging .627 on the season.

Paul Goldschmidt and the Cardinals also sat idle as the first baseman holds third place. Kyle Tucker of the Astros goes two for four with a double for fourth place, while Mookie Betts and the Dodgers also rested, Betts holding fifth place.
