They say the best revenge is living well. In baseball terms, this means hitting a home run.
Washington Nationals star Bryce Harper utilized this strategy Sunday against the Cincinnati Reds after a fan was heard calling him "overrated." The right fielder responded by hitting his second home run of the game:

This ninth-inning insurance run was actually important, with the Reds scoring two in the bottom of the frame to cut the lead to one.
