When Bryce Harper returned to Washington DC for the first time since signing with the Phillies, he performed a heel turn that would have made Bret Hart proud. After clubbing a ball into the upper deck, Harper flipped his bat so high into the air that it’s still up there, flipping end over end.
Physicists have calculated that it will come down around 2072 or around the same time his deferred payments would have ceased had he re-signed with the Nationals.
If the Giants had signed Harper, this would have been his homecoming. Imagine if Harper were wearing a Giants uniform when he flipped that bat into the sun.
