Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper has nothing but respect for manager Matt Williams, according to The Washington Post.
The two haven't exactly had the smoothest transition this season. Williams benched Harper earlier in the year for not hustling, and Harper seemed to question Williams' lineup decisions on his first day back. Those issues appear to be overblown, as the two downplayed the problems.
"I got Bryce’s back in every way," Williams said. "That will not change. I want him to play every day, and I want him to play the way Bryce knows how to play."
Harper is hitting .287/.350/.415 over 94 at-bats.
