====Fight with Pete Rose====
Harrelson's light hitting became the subject of controversy during the [[1973 National League Championship Series]].

In the fifth inning, Rose's hard slide hard into second base sparked a bench-clearing brawl. The game was nearly forfeited when the [[Shea Stadium]] crowd threw objects at Rose, causing manager [[Sparky Anderson]] to remove the team from the field until order was restored. Mets manager [[Yogi Berra]] and players [[Willie Mays]], [[Tom Seaver]], [[Cleon Jones]] and [[Rusty Staub]] walked to left field to attempt to calm the fans.<ref name="james">{{JamesAbstract|pages=643}}</ref>
