Bryce Harper made his Philadelphia Phillies debut on Saturday with a somewhat apt choice of walk-up music.
As Harper received a loud ovation from Phillies fans in Clearwater when he stepped into the box, many fans noticed the music playing as he stood in: the theme song from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Obviously, the song makes several references to Philadelphia, though it is rather amusing that it ends by moving to Los Angeles. Harper cut that part out, though.
Some Phillies fans may have been a bit worried after Harper slipped up in his introductory press conference. It looks like he’s well on his way to making amends.
As for the debut itself? Harper walked twice and scored a run before departing for the afternoon.
