Nothing gets past Twitter.
Bryce Harper—shortly after hitting a two-run home run off Astros pitcher Lance McCullers on the first pitch he saw in Tuesday night's 7-0 Game 3 Phillies win—whispered something to Alec Bohm before his at-bat.
Bohm homered as well, giving the Phillies a 3-0 lead and a few batters later Brandon Marsh did the same to give the Phils a 4-0 lead. Later Kyle Schwarber and Rhys Hoskins both hit bombs as well and the Phillies won 7-0.
Fans, media, and even professional athletes like Jason Kelce began to wonder if the Phillies had a tell on McCullers.
Well, the internet has found a possible tell based on McCuller's leg kick and delivery.
After the game, former Phillies pitcher Pedro Martinez broke down how McCullers may have been tipping pitches.
The Phillies became the first team in World Series history with three or more home runs in the first two innings of a game and finished the game with five home runs, tying a World Series record en route to a 7-0 win.
McCullers has allowed six hits, seven earned runs, and five home runs in 4.1 innings in the Game 3 loss.
