Game 3 Scores:
- Houston Astros 0 – Philadelphia Phillies 7 (PHI leads series 2-1)
Highlights: Bryce Harper bashed a home run on the first World Series pitch he saw in Philadelphia, and then figured out how the Phillies could hit a few more.

The secret has long been out: these Phillies are for real. Now, they’re two wins away from their first World Series championship since 2008. Harper hammered his sixth postseason home run, whispered an assist to Bohm before his solo shot and the Phillies tied a World Series record with five homers to rout the Houston Astros 7-0 Tuesday night and take a 2-1 Series lead.
