Bryce Harper suffers apparent elbow injury for Phillies

Philadelphia Phillies star outfielder Bryce Harper might be the single most important individual when it comes to the  NL East race this season.

The six-time All-Star is coming off his second MVP season and is looking to help Philadelphia contend in the ultra-competitive division.

Unfortunately, the Phillies and their fans are holding their breath right now. During Monday’s game against the New York Mets, Harper was seen holding his elbow after a throw to home plate.

It became immediately clear that he was in some pain before heading to the dugout as the top of the seventh wrapped up.
