PHILADELPHIA —
Phillies shortstop Trea Turner held his breath like the rest of the Phillies when he saw Harper disappear after his tumble.
“You never want to see that, but he’s tough,” Turner said. “He’s a superhero. He does stuff like that. He got a little nicked up. But he popped right back up. You expect that from him because he grinds it out.”
Harper started the day back at his catching roots. He caught one of the ceremonial first pitches thrown by retired Philadelphia Eagles Jason Kelce and Fletcher Cox. Harper had his spikes signed by Kelce and the slugger mimicked Cox’s sack dance.
