Bryce Harper charges Hunter Strickland after being beaned on the hip, actual fight takes place

[Dan Druff]

Strickland likely threw at Harper because Harper hit 2 home runs off him in the 2014 NLDS, or at least that's the prevailing theory.

Oddly, the game was only 2-0 in the 8th when this happened, with Washington leading.

Vegas boy not taking any shit.

Was Harper intending to hit Strickland with his batting helmet? If so, that was a shit throw.

Looks like he was thinking of it, then decided to just fake it and throw it to the side.

So, Buster Posey is the biggest pussy alive or he hates Strickland.

Posey doesn't even try to save his pitcher

I have heard more than one person that Bryce has the maturity of a 17 year old with no social skills. He was rushed into pro baseball by his parents at age 16 and quit high school. Though he apparently is a teetotaler Morman today, don't be surprised if you see him go Tiger Woods by age 30. When he signs that $400M contract, look for diminished production on the field, and multiple rehabs by age 35. By all accounts, he is socially challenged.

Yeah from what I can tell, Harper is a delusional idiot....it was funny when he scrapped with Papelbon that all the media tended to blame Pap....they were both dickheads!

This seemed like a fun little brawl....and yeah my guess is the Giants knew this was going to happen....Strickland has a beef with Harper or whatever, cause Posey makes no move at all to try to stop him.

Homer Nats fans will claim that this was "just because he hit a HR off of him" but the real story is he hit the HR...and then mean mugged Strickland ALL the way around the bases, and then shouted at him for a solid minute when he got back in the dugout. No shit you got a fastball right at you next chance he got.

Harper is a complete douchebag, always has been, and the only shame about this incident is he didn't get hit in the fucking head and/or KTFO by the pitcher after charging the mound.
