Bryce Harper takes "long ball" to a new level.
With the Washington Nationals down 1-0 to the St. Louis Cardinals in the sixth inning Thursday, Mike Leake served up a mistake to the slugger.
Harper sat on a hanging breaking ball, and obliterated it into the third deck at Nationals Park to tie the game 1-1.
The blast was Harper's 12th home run of the season, and his first since May 13.
