Today, Bryce Harper will be in a Major League uniform for the Washington Nationals as they take on the Los Angeles Dodgers. This day is a culmination of three years of hype surrounding him.

Not really new news. Harper did pretty good in LA. 2B, game tieing RBI and a “sick” throw on a rope to the catcher for what should have been an out in his first game. 2nd game a webgem catch in center.
He may be cocky but the kid’s got game.
Check out the guy in the stands in the blue shirt directly over the catcher's head.
I haven’t seen that before, oh that’s funny! The moon!
Hilarious!
If this punk becomes a Hall of Famer, that clip will live in infamy!

This is probably the thinest piece of sports reporting I have seen in some time.
The Nationals didn’t want to bring him up. They had to because of an injury.
Didn’t get the final vote for the All-Star game. Thought he deserved it, despite missing nearly a month.
