Harper has gone without a homer in eight straight games and has two in the entire month. Antonio Senzatela and Carson Palmquist are pitching today and tomorrow, which are excellent matchups for Harper. Since 2019, Harper has played at least one series in Colorado and hit a homer in four out of five series.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Please bet responsibly.
