Bryce Harper wants everyone to know he can do much more than crush home runs.

The National League MVP candidate went 2-for-5 and scored a run in the Washington Nationals' 9-5 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, but everyone will be talking about the momentum-changing toss he made from the warning track in right field to cut down Ryan Braun in the first inning.

Harper earned his sixth outfield assist with the laser.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte leads the National League with 11 assists entering play Sunday night.
