For me, if I was the manager I’m not bothered. He didn’t let the other team talk trash, and stands up for his team. Team unity.

  1. I mean, it sure looked like Bird said some nasty shit. After the Ump Show handed them two outs that inning.

  2. I didn’t think it was possible to love Bryce more than I already do. I now see, i was wrong.

  3. Nothing wrong. This is what a team captain does. Also that pitcher is a big biiiiatch.

  4. Man, the Union get in a fight last night to the Rapids and the Phils get in a fight today with the Rockies. Those Colorado sports teams suffering from oxygen deprivation up there /s

  5. Really want to see a Jake Bird / Bryce Harper at bat now
    We do not play the Rockies again this year – but maybe next year!

  6. I’m going with one of those stupid kids Harper trolled in the stands last night was somehow related to Bird.

  7. That pitcher talking shit after the ump gifted him two outs was such weak sauce.

  8. Ruben may have had his first funny comment in regards to Bird after this debacle. I’m paraphrasing, but it was something along the lines of, “he’s talking a lot of smack considering his mediocre pitching performance” lol

  9. Ok so if Harper is the unofficial team captain, who is the unofficial enforcer?

  10. While it’s not like the game was totally lost at the moment, the lack of hitting with RISP, the getaway day with the series already in hand and the general incompetence by the umps definitely made it seem like it was bound to be one of those days.

    Just like Topper kept Schwarber in the game by taking the heat on the terrible strike three call, I think Harper read the moment right and got everyone fired up when it seemed like most were already halfway to SF. Maybe it doesn’t win today’s game, but when your leader and best player is ready to go to the mat in a mostly lost cause of a game, that tends to rub off and trickle down.
