Bryce Harper is making baseball fun again, one day at a time.
The Washington Nationals superstar made an otherwise routine play a highlight Monday when he stole second base with batting gloves in his mouth during the first inning. It was Harper's second steal of the year after swiping just six bags last season.
Prior to first pitch, baseball's fun ambassador showed off "100" emoji decals on his bat, presumably in anticipation of his next home run. The reigning NL MVP is sitting on 99 for his career.
