Now in his fourth season as a member of the Phillies, Harper has embraced the special relationship that exists with Philadelphia fans and their teams. He has also embraced his teammates and the close bonds that have formed on this October journey.
"“I hit the ball, and I just looked at my dugout and kind of it’s for all of them,” Harper said. “It’s for this whole team. It’s for this whole organization. We haven’t been here for a long time. It’s for every single fan that’s here now and that isn’t here. It’s for all of them no matter — like I said, where you came from, who you are, you’ve got Phils on your chest, you’re family. I really believe that. That’s from right here. “I feel that each day when I walk into the ballpark, and I just — that’s it, man. Everybody that has Phillies on their chest is family, man.”"
