"It didn't hit me in the head. So I think I'm doing OK."

Busy night for Harper at his first All-Star Game: Gold cleats. 0-1, K, BB, caught in a rundown. And then there was the routine fly ball he lost in the lights. It happens to the best of 'em, kid. More importantly, Stras and Gio pitched scoreless innings, and with the 8-0 win by the NL, the Washington Nationals have secured home field advantage for the 2012 World Series. Here's video of Harper losing the aforementioned ball in the lights:

forgot to mention tagging up while having an 8-0 lead, not Bryce's best shining moment!
