So what’s the best way for him to cool down?
Getting showered in chocolate syrup after winning the game of, course.
When Harper hit the walk-off home run to beat the Atlanta Braves, his entire face was absolutely covered in syrup during the post-game interview.
This got way too 9 1/2 Weeks way too fast for America to handle.
The stretch Harper is on is not one many have gone on before him. He’s already the youngest player to accomplish the monstrous feat.
Even crazier is that he is just 22 years old. Odds are he will be getting a lot more syrup in his career.
Getting covered in chocolate syrup is a new celebration however. Usually players get a shaving cream pie in the face or a bucket of bubblegum dumped on their head after such occasions. The syrup celebration is a little more messy however and probably a pain to clean off.
However, when you’re Bryce Harper and you’ve just hit six home runs in the last three games and are the talk of the game, the syrup probably never tasted so sweet.
