On Wednesday night in DC, Bryce Harper cranked his 16th homer of the season off of the Chicago Cubs, tying him with Ken Griffey Jr. for 3rd on the teenager home all time run chart. After he ran swiftly around the bases Harper gave a signal to his mother and father (Sherry & Ron) who were sitting behind home plate.
As several readers pointed out, this is "I Love You" in sign language. I wish FP & Bob told me that! The thumb is out so it isn't Hook'em Horns or the Metal sign.
Bryce never confirmed anything, so you make the call.
Later in the game Harper hit a no doubter, his 2nd of the game helping him pass Griffey, and he gave another signal to the rents. Not a bad night! Video after the jump:
I first thought it was Hook'em Horns or something like that...still not 100% convinced it isn't!
