Bryce Harper and the Washington Nationals capped off a three-game sweep on the road against the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, winning 6-5. In the ninth inning, Washington up 5-3, Harper was at the plate when a fan yelled out, “overrated!” a couple of times.
That’s when Harper unleashed the second home run of the game, a towering shot to center field that proved the difference in the one-run game.
