Daily News | Bryce Harper put on a show in his first rehab outing. How many more does he really need?
ALLENTOWN, Pa. — A short distance away from where a long-haired show dog was helping to throw out the first pitch, a gaggle of fans and cameras was forming around a tunnel on the third base side of the infield. It may have been a Tail Waggin’ Tuesday at Coca-Cola Park, but the featured attraction on this particular night had two opposable thumbs, one of them surgically repaired.
“We’re gonna take it one game at a time,” Harper said after hitting two homers and reaching base four times in his first live game action since fracturing his thumb on June 25. “Understanding that tonight was great, but at the same time I need the at-bats, see different pitches, different guys, different angles. Understanding how my body is going to react, what my thumb is going to be like and just try to go from there.
“I have to understand that I need to see pitches,” Harper said. “I mean, I need to see and understand that going out there at the big league level, it’s tough to get at-bats where nobody cares. Everybody cares up there. If I see pitches here and it’s not that great, or I can play two days and take a day off or three days and take a day off, it’s great. Up there, I can’t play two days and take a day off. Being able to be down here, understanding and controlling each situations that we’re in.
