The Washington Nationals are in Chicago for a three-game series, and Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper has adopted the Blackhawks as his latest bandwagon team.

Harper was spotted at the PepsiCo building serving smoothies in the Gatorade juice bar.

The 22-year-old outfielder from Las Vegas was wearing a Blackhawks shirt while serving smoothies, so he either didn’t want the Chicago fans throwing the smoothies back at him or he’s truly a Blackhawks fan.

Even though Harper is a fan of the Blackhawks, he still doesn’t take it easy on the Cubs.

Through the first two games of the series, Harper is 2-for-7 with one run scored, one RBI and this home run which he thought wasn’t going out:

Too bad for Harper that the he’ll be playing in Wrigley Field during Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals between the Blackhawks and Anaheim Ducks.
