Bryce Harper Bats Second Friday
7 years agoWashington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper will bat second against Diamondbacks starter Matt Koch on Friday. It's the first time he won't be batting leadoff in two weeks. Harper went 1-for-5 on Thursday after taking a day off from his prolonged leadoff slump. Trea Turner will lead off instead. Koch is a rookie who hasn't allowed more than two runs in a start. He faced down a formidable Astros lineup, but Harper is a good bet to break out here.
