Born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada, Bryce Harper pledged his allegiance early to the Vegas Golden Knights. Now it seems he has turned his brother Bryan into a fan as well.
While the Nationals were in Miami for a series against the Miami Marlins, Bryan visited his brother at the ballpark on Wednesday afternoon. Caught on camera having a conversation with Bryce and Nats pitcher Matt Grace, Bryan was wearing a Golden Knights cap.

Look at this monster. He’s smiling that huge smile despite the fact his favorite team took our dear Nate Schmidt in the expansion draft.
Like his brother Bryce, Bryan is also a player in the Nationals organization. Last summer, the pitcher was promoted to Triple A Syracuse Chiefs. While potentially on his way to a big league appearance, Bryan was sidetracked with an arm injury and eventually underwent Tommy John surgery in November. He will miss the entire 2017 season and has been spending most of his time at the Nats spring training facility in Florida for rehab.
Bryan has supported a wide variety of hockey teams before, including the LA Kings, Chicago Blackhawks, Team USA, and the Hershey Bears.
