The funniest thing about the “You’ll never be as good as Acuña.” Is Bryce correcting him on how to say Acuña

[@gabrielpierce1985]

priceless

[@HenryReynolds-hq1ub]

And jt cracking up next to him while he’s correcting him

[@Quakerman14]

I always have liked Harper. Then he married a Buckeye and I liked him even more. Then he corrected a heckler, and he will forever be one of my favorites.

[@Hoscue]

OMG there's nothing worse than someone who keeps yelling the same thing over and over without giving a chance to respond, ala Mr. Akoonah

[@MaverickJ3W]

I also think it has to do with the fact that as a player, not only does he know who acuña is personally, he respects him as a player. Enough so that he really meant to the guy yelling at him, that if "you're going to say he's better than me, at least pronounce his name correctly." As in show acuña the respect he deserves. He too, is a great still young player, and I'm sure Harper resonates with that. I think that's also a major undertone to why he was so adamant about correcting the heckler's pronunciation. It wasn't just out of spite for the heckler or to heckle back.

[@DA-yl8js]

You can see the evolution of Harper like the evolution of his swing. It used to be big and flashy, lots of moving parts. Now it's simple, more compact, maintaining the same violence and intensity while maturing and knowing he doesn't have to do too much. One of the most enjoyable players to watch in the game

[@eggoslayer1001]

Yeah, he's aged his game like fine wine. His plate discipline is nuts. His playoff appearances with the Phillies have been so absurdly clutch as well, like absolutely legendary status. He's also just a really likeable person these days too. It's been really fun to see him turn it all around and become this incredible future hall of famer that's so fun to watch.

[@Ty_Guy2K]

It’s funny you say this, that was one of the first things I noticed when they showed older clips of him in Washington. His hands used to be so far away from his body and was just doing a lot (albeit it definitely worked especially in 2015)

[@Chefnolan17]

Contrary to the media’s belief, I waited for Harper outside of Wrigley in August of 2013. I waited for more than an hour with his jersey on the railing next to the bus, and when he saw me he made a b-line for me and signed my jersey. Bryce was misunderstood in that era and I’m so glad people are recognizing this now because he’s a superstar on and off the field.

[@MaverickJ3W]

I agree, but I'm not sure if misunderstood is the correct terminology. I think it's the fact that he had literally the most amount of hype for a prospect for sure in the modern baseball era. That's something no one will ever live up to. The expectations are just too high. Even when you're following through on those expectations, shattering records, well it's just expected, because as this video and SI mentioned, he was baseball's "chosen one". They basically put a giant target on his back. Then when he lives up to the hype he also has an ego, one pretty well deserved. I think most everyone no matter how humble of a person you are, would have some kind of ego, with that kind of label. It's the biggest problem with hyping up players and prospects; the insane amount of pressure to perform with little to no room for mistakes or to learn and grow. That period after like 2017 where things sort of quieted down around him until he went to the Phillies I think allowed him to grow not as much under the limelight. Just like this video explained. So I'm not sure it is quite as much as being misunderstood, though I totally can see your pov, I just think it was the fact that no one allowed him at the time to more quietly grow into the person he is today. Though after writing this, maybe I would amend my first sentence and say maybe misunderstood is a better description than I had originally thought.

[@omalleycaboose5937]

He did need to, and learned to. Better control his anger, but yeah. All the media ever showed of him was his flaws.

[@thatoneoshawott5826]

Bryce radiates dad energy now

[@CarterStolt]

Bro knows him personally. You’re right tho

[@dominicD1434]

The best part about that NLCS HR was the fact that everyone knew something big was about to happen. From his walkup to the camera following him and the fans going crazy in the background. That’s the type of aura this hero Bryce Harper brings now. It’s truly amazing

[@spaceace0840]

Too bad he had no aura in the World Series

[@thephoenixxm4160]

@@spaceace0840 The Astros were the better team sadly. Their pitching was elite that year and even that might be an understatement. They went undefeated until the World Series in that post-season for a reason. They no-hit us in that World Series for a reason. They were the better team that had way more playoff experience then us. They had tons of World Series experience as well. We had no playoff experience or World Series experience that season and it showed in the Fall Classic.

[@1neOfN0ne]

Harper hitting that go ahead HR in the clinching game in the NLCS just might be the most exciting thing I've ever seen as a Phillies fan ...and yes I'm including the 08 WS run. Every fan watching that moment shared a feeling as he was at the plate that he would come through but then couldn't believe it when he did. I was at Game 4 the night before and that was the most electric environment I've ever been around for a sporting event. He's been a godsend

[@joeelliott1647]

the homerun harper hit is better just bc he showed us philly fans that WE can get there again

[@greetingsmars]

I’m a Padres fan that definitely “shared a feeling” with you lol. Thing is though, I saw it coming a mile away as soon as he spat on that changeup like the dude said in this video. I wasn’t even pissed, I was just like “Well GG, all the respect to Bryce who just did the damn thing”, and I went back to using my Bryce Harper beard balm that I put away for the series. Luckily I was at game 2 at Petco & I will never forget the energy in that building it was fucking turbocharged electric

[@zackmaslin8257]

I was also at game 4. One of my favorite memories of all time

[@globalpoliticsman9523]

I was 2 years old when the 08 series happened. So Harper Legit carrying the fucking team to the playoffs what's just fucking amazing. The only thing that can be that momentwas when everybody was shitting on HoskinsAnd then he goes out and it's a home run and spikes the freaking bat.

[@1neOfN0ne]

@@greetingsmars lol you guys should have known you were screwed the second the "THAT'S WHAT'S IN" video came out 😂 I swear the second i saw it, I knew there's no way in hell we're losing this series. In all seriousness though, The Padres manager deciding not to go with Hader in that situation, especially when Hader was warmed up ready to go, would forever haunt me if i were a Padres fan. He should have been fired immediately after the game

[@austin8783]

All the crap he had to endure from people hating him for being good, and he goes out and is having a probable hall of fame career. Tells you a lot about his mental toughness

[@joeelliott1647]

no probable it’s guaranteed for sure

[@JesusChrist2000BC]

Probable? He's a first ballot if he quit today.

[@limitedbom2206]

Ok, it's one thing for being good and people hating, but let's be honest with ourselves, when he was early in the league he was throwing a lot of tantrums. People hate anyone that complains to the refs in any sport.

[@sansoosavage]

He was consistently called out on Angel Hernandez level bad calls and kicked out for stuff that wouldn’t get you kicked out of a little league game. Never overrated. Just over-hated.

[@defeatstatistics7413]

refereeing by reputation is a thing in all sports. in soccer too, if a player is notorious for diving, they often don't get actual fouls called. tennis players with a reputation for arguing get warnings more easily. dirty tacklers in rugby get punished even when they tackle cleanly. it's just how referees/umpires work, which kinda sucks.

[@leroyapplegate5049]

Bryce is the definition of a ball player. I’m an Os fan but he’s been one of my favorite players since he came in. Certified dawg

[@aydenwolfe3906]

Bryce Harper is a stud and is one of the best in baseball

[@kennayres6132]

Bryce is amazing...I'm old enough to have seen Schmidt, Boone, Bowa, McGraw, and "The Bull" beat the Royals in the World Series. That goofy, blue collar '93 team that we adored here in Philly....BUT this team...at 55yrs old this team has me and my friends jumping up and down like kids again, and Bryce Harper is at the very essence and heart of that feeling.😊

[@brandonkiehl269]

Amazing video! One other thing that you didn't mention is that Bryce has been a *huge* part of recruiting these blue-collar, mercenary players to join the Phillies. Half the time the Phillies sign someone, it feels like they're there because Harper wanted to play with them. Nowhere was that more obvious than Trea Turner, who left the money-boat of the Dodgers to join the Phillies because he's good friends with Bryce. This Phillies team has the best culture since '08, and that all started with Harp, and the fan base has responded in kind... I've never, in my life, seen the Philly Phaithful buy in so hard to any team. All that time say: He's everything you could ever want from the face of your franchise.

[@paysonfox88]

The moment that Bryce Harper truly arrived in Philadelphia was a regular season game early on. They were playing the Cubs, and Harper hit a majestic Grand Slam to win the game in walkoff fashion. That swing even made Jon Kruk gasp in surprise. "oh my gawd!!!"

[@slimslanginslinky]

[@killacam2644]

Just got done watching the giants game. Bryce had a hat trick. Kyle Harrison went high and tight twice in a row. Bryce handled his temper and nothing happened really. Good times.

[@philly_sports1558]

And he let his play do the talking by driving home a run later in the game. He’s a beast.

[@GrimmityClips]

Took his temper to a bat in the dugout 😅 but hey, it was only a season ending injury for a bat this time. Couldn't resist 😁

[@mattmcavaney1043]

The only thing to hate about Harper is if he's not on your team. He's the prototypical ballplayer in my mind. Hustle, passion, and hunger to win.

[@joemccuen9631]

As a Phillies fan, I will forever love Bryce Harper regardless of if we ever win a World Series or not, he’s a Philly legend.

Harper is one of my favorite players in the sport right now, and I’m a diehard Braves fan

I have been a Nationals fan since day 1, and I'm so glad that i am not the only one who holds this sentiment towards Bryce. Even as he walked out the door, I still admired him, and always will. I knew his character. A man who holds himself to a high standard and inspires others with action. The one's who knew what he was really all about were few and far between. The man has an edge, but it's an edge that is backed up with pure talent, grit and a love for the game. Its bittersweet watching Bryce and Trea, 2 of my favorite players play against us, but warms my heart to see Philly welcome them and have their back. From the DMV with love.

I used to hate Bryce on the nats as a rival fan because he was so good and cocky. However as a Philly he’s done a complete about face and I actually really enjoy watching him play.

[@valpix7007]

I think it's interesting how the perceptions of Harper and Rendon are basically opposites. When the backlash against Harper was starting, Rendon started to get more and more love, he was always the most cliche answer to most underrated and it culminated in 2019 when Rendon's Nats won the WS while Harper's Phillies did nothing. Then right as Rendon's career fell apart in Anaheim and he started to get shit for his almost apathetic attitude towards the game, Harper was building a new era for himself as a Phillies legend

[@FlashyShad]

As a Phillies fan, Bryce Harper is the absolute best. There was a long time our team was sorry, and without him we would have never made it to where we are now. He may have not brought this city a championship yet, but he is already a living legend. He brought this team back to relevancy. He brought back my love for the Phillies that I hadn’t had since the days of Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins, Chase Utley, etc. He is the man, and one of the best playoff performers since joining the Phillies that I have ever seen. You can tell he has a genuine love and passion for the game. He is not a diva, everyone should want their best player to have the attitude of Bryce Harper, just WIN. Thats all the man cares about.

[@joshmason1460]

330 million?? What a damn steal!! Not many of you get the chance to experience being legit contenders for a World Series and a Super Bowl for a few years straight at the same time!! Neither team has sealed the deal yet, but because the Phils got one in ‘08 and the Eagles in ‘17, we’re able to be patient and enjoy the ride. And what a damn ride it’s been!! We’re not thinking about “if”, we’re thinking about when. And if they don’t get there, it’s been such an exciting experience that it’s still gonna be a very memorable experience. I hope all diehard sports fans get to experience this one time in their lives!! It’s unreal!!

I went from hating Bryce Harper when he was on the nationals then getting his jersey when he’s on the Phillies

Bryce has always been really fun to watch play baseball. I was entertained by the outbursts and self-hype, because it was a show of emotions that the game desperately needed. I also attribute the fact that baseball in 2012 was still "old school" to the hatred for Harper as a Nat. Let me point your attention to an example from my Mariners. J-Rod was a rookie in 2022 as a 21-year-old and had some of the same maturity issues (although less frequently), and was still loved by the baseball world form day one.

The only thing he needs to solidify his legacy for once and for all is a ring.
