My friend Jesse Rogers, you've been reporting on Bryce Harper, but I gotta ask you, do you remember this lovely moment?

We're gonna go in, we're gonna try to do everything we can to win and play hard and play well.

You know, we want to bring a title back to D.C.

I want to bring a championship back to Washington, D.C. in front of the entire Phillies crowd in his intro press conference

that was one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. But he more than

made up for it when he started to complain about the price of beer in the stadium.

There's a lot of fans that love to come to the game that are spending about $16 for beer.

That used to only be about 25 cents for a beer.

And that he wouldn't wear Roy Halliday's number, number 34.

Of course I wore 34, but I thought Roy Holliday should be the last one to wear it.

You know, he's somebody in this game that, you know, is greater than a lot of guys ever played it.

He immediately endeared himself to Philly fans even after saying that.

So I think Bryce Harper knew exactly what to say and when to say it

despite that mistake. I sort of like to look at it as he was looked at by

the Philly faithful as fallible as in like he's not a slickster maybe he's not even that smart but we kind of like him point being what was he's welcome to Philly moment for you Jesse Rogers.

Well in all honesty we know about Philly fans, we know about the history, they can be rough around the edges.

So he documents to me on day one, he remembers it as striking out in his first at back. He actually grounded out to first.

Swanging a ground ball hit the first.

Framin Bobble the moment, but he scoops it, runs to the bag, and Harper retired.

And then he struck out in his next two at bats. Now why is that his

welcome to Philly moment? Because they booed him. They boot him in all three at bats and instead of going

into a shell retreating into that hey screw you guys he
