PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Since the word broke about the superstar signing a little more than 24 hours ago, Phillies fans have been going wild, showing their love for Bryce Harper and the team. Excited Phillies fans are flocking to the Citizen’s Bank Park ticket office in droves.
The addition of slugger Bryce Harper has given the fan base high hopes – as the great Harry Kalas would say.
“Great because now we can become favorites for the National League East,” said William Faville.
While the Phillies confirm more than 100,000 ticket sales sold in a day, the demand for merchandise has custom t-shirt sales soaring.
