A Message to Nationals Fans Before Bryce Harper’s Return

For the Washington Nationals and their fans, Tuesday night is going to be electric. The Nationals (2-1) take on the Philidelphia Phillies (3-0) for the first time in the 2019 season.

This, of course, means Bryce Harper will make his highly anticipated return to the city that he called home for the first seven years of his Major League career.

The emotions surrounding this game are higher than any in recent Nationals history, and the atmosphere at Nationals Park is going to be electric. But before the 26-year-old Phillies right fielder steps onto the field as a member of Philidelphia for the first time, there is something that needs to be said to Nationals fans.
