Phillies star outfielder Bryce Harper recorded his 200th career home run and 1,000th career hit during the same at-bat against the Braves on Wednesday.

Harper is the first-ever player to reach both milestones on the same swing.

Harper accomplished the feat during the sixth inning, when he took Atlanta's Bryse Wilson deep for a two-run shot. It marked Harper's 16th homer of the season.

Harper, who's in his first year with Philadelphia after signing a 13-year, $330 million contract with the club this past offseason, entered Wednesday slashing .247/.364/.465 this season.
