WASHINGTON -- From the moment his name was announced, the sellout crowd at Nationals Park worked itself into a frenzy for Bryce Harper. They roared when he was introduced before the start of the T-Mobile Home Run Derby. Then again as he stepped up to the plate, and pointed to the D.C. flag bandana around his head. Decked out in an American flag arm sleeve, his walkup song from the regular season, "Flower" by Moby, blared throughout the stadium.
Then, he proceeded to give the fans the start to the show they had so eagerly anticipated.
