The Red Sox have a new home run celebration that looks to be quite the fun experience.
The Boston Red Sox got off to a nightmare 0-3 start to the 2021 season. Fans were panicking after the sweep against the Baltimore Orioles, but they managed to turn it around.
The Red Sox have won two straight and even had a walk-off hit Tuesday night against Tampa. Fans in Boston are also witnessing a home run celebration that looks to be one of the best in all of baseball.
Want to make baseball fun again? Here is how.
Boston showing other teams how to truly celebrate a home run
There are plenty of people in the game who get mad if someone flips their bat or even remotely shows any excitement following a home run. The Red Sox don’t seem to care about any of that, even if they keep the celebration within the confines of the dugout.
Baseball is supposed to be fun and teams around the league should make it a point to celebrate exciting moments. Sure, don’t wheel around on a cart for a home run that cuts a 10-0 deficit to 10-1. But a go-ahead shot? Bust out all the excitement.
The team also had plenty of reasons to smile after that tough 0-3 start. The first three games of the season don’t define the year, but no one wants that kind of start after a tough and unique 2020 campaign.
What could top this celebration? Teams around the league will now face the task of answering that question.
