WASHINGTON, D.C. (SportsDirect Inc.) — Bryce Harper is sure to pass plenty of milestones in his career, and the reigning National League Most Valuable Player has a good shot at hitting one Saturday.

Harper takes aim at his 100th career home run when the Washington Nationals continue their three-game series with the visiting Miami Marlins.

The Marlins claimed the series opener 6-4 on Thursday despite Harper’s 99th career blast.

After a scheduled off day Friday, the NL East rivals are back at it Saturday with Miami right-hander Tom Koehler taking the mound against Washington right-hander Joe Ross.
