The Phillies are now 5-1 following their 10-4 victory over the Minnesota Twins at a rain-filled Citizens Bank Park on Friday night.
The win was the latest in what has been an extremely impressive start to the season for the Phillies.
Here are 12 impressive stats so far from this young Phillies' season:
1st-or-2nd: Bryce Harper and Maikel Franco are either 1st-or-2nd in the entire majors in OBP, SLG and OPS through the first six games of the season. Harper is sporting a line of .571/.950/1.521 while Franco has an even slightly better line of .593/.944/1.537.
95th: Harper is the in 95th percentile among right fielders when it comes for hitting for power and he is in the 99th percentile in plate discipline.
1.125: That was Harper's secondary average entering Friday night's game, which was the best in the majors. A secondary average, as opposed to a traditional batting average, gives you a better understanding of the impact a player has, as it gives extra credit for doubles, triples, home runs, walks and stolen bases. Add everything up, and Harper has been the best hitter in the majors so far this season.
14: Harper has seen 119 pitches so far this season, but has allowed only 14 to go by him for a strike. After leading the majors in walks last season there was an argument to be made that Harper had one of the best eyes in baseball. His play so far this season is only furthering that argument.
+23: The Phillies have a run differential of plus-23 through six games, which is second-best in all of baseball.
82%: Last season, only 61% of the pitches Maikel Franco swung at were in the strike zone. This year? That number is up to 82%, and the increased plate discipline has resulted in the hottest start of his career.
6.67: The Phillies are averaging 6.67 walks per game through their first six games, which is best in the majors.
1.86: The Phillies are averaging nearly two runs an inning when leadoff hitter Andrew McCutchen reaches to start the inning. Conversely, when he doesn't reach, the Phillies' offense is averaging only .27 runs per inning.
.914: The Phillies has a combined OPS of .914, which is the best in the majors. They are allowing an OPS of just .782, which is the 24th lowest in the majors.
102: The Phillies as a team have collected 102 total bases since opening day, good for 10th in the majors.
49: The Phillies have either earned a walk or been intentionally walked a combined 49 times so far. No team has been intentionally walked more (nine) than the Phillies. Twice this season Harper has earned a walk to load the bases.
2: The Phillies have only grounded into two double plays all season.
