Minor Leaguer Hits Home Run, Taunts Pitcher By Blowing Him a Kiss

Big League Stew provides the background on this one:

[Bryce] Harper, an [18-year-old] elite prospect who plays for Class A Hagerstown (Md.) in the Washington Nationals organization, went into a protracted home run trot in the sixth inning Monday night that featured him blowing a kiss to Greensboro pitcher Zachary Neal just before touching home plate.

If you plan on becoming a superstar, this is not the right way to do it.  Harper needs to learn to have a little humility.  Hopefully he got the message when he was brushed back in his next at-bat.
