Gary Sanchez used an emphatic bat drop to celebrate his massive home run over the Monster
While the first one was big -- his solo shot in the second inning opened up a 2-0 lead for New York -- his second was an emphatic blast that put the game out of reach.

The catcher didn't just watch it fly over the wall though, but he added an emphatic mic drop at the plate. Because when you hit a stadium-quieting home run against your fierciest rivals, a mere bat flip just won't do.
That also led the Yankees to this amazing tweet -- not only does it reference Fenway's famous wall, but it also alludes to Sanchez's fittingly October "Scary Gary" nickname:
He did the mash.
