HBT: Ozzie, Harper make up ? with a gift

The other day Ozzie Guillen and Bryce Harper got into a pissy little fight over how much pine tar was on Harper?s bat. On Monday, some Nationals? veterans figured out a good way to defuse it all:

They had the unknowing Harper sign a bat and added a message along with a generous amount of pine tar before sending it to the Marlins? clubhouse.??It had pine tar all over the place,? Guillen said, laughing. ?They put the rest: ?To my hero, Ozzie. Love you.? I thought it was funny.?

The peacemakers: Edwin Jackson, who Guillen managed in Chicago, and Adam LaRoche, whose father used to play with Guillen. ?I suppose all the fuss is over now.

Which, good. But man, this whole ?every Bryce Harper controversy turns into a happy little story in the end? stuff is getting a little old. It?s like Clint Eastwood on his farm at the beginning of ?Unforgiven,? saying ?I ain?t like that anymore.? Eventually something?s gonna happen that?s gonna make Harper?kill someone?s?wife, all his?friends, and burn his damn house down, right? Figuratively I mean. Because we can?t escape out nature?
