After going viral for rolling up to Game 3 in a Deion Sanders Colorado shirt, Philadelphia Phillies superstar Bryce Harper debuted some new threads ahead of Game 4.

Harper arrived at Citizens Bank Park in style Thursday afternoon with the Phillies one win away from advancing to the NLCS for the second year in a row. The outfielder-turned-first baseman wore a light blue suit, which featured photos of the Philadelphia skyline on the inside of the jacket.

The outfit also consisted of a throwback Phillies hat and a Phillie Phanatic pocket square.

Harper has thrived at the plate thus far in the NLDS, even if his baserunning blunder led to an Atlanta Braves win in Game 2. He is 5-for-11 with three home runs, five RBI, three walks and a stolen base three games into the series.

The two home runs Harper hit in Game 3 made waves, not only by powering the Phillies to a 10-2 win, but mostly because he stared down shortstop Orlando Arcia on both trips around the bases. Arcia had reportedly mocked Harper in the Braves locker room after he was doubled up to end Game 2.

In his postseason career, Harper is a .282 hitter with a 1.010 OPS.

Game 4 is scheduled to begin at 8:07 p.m. ET. If the Braves are able to keep Harper in check and pull out a win, a do-or-die Game 5 will take place in Atlanta on Saturday.
