Mookie Betts and the Red Sox outfield need your help picking a new victory dance
They've Hit Dem Folks. They've flown down the imaginary slopes. They've paid homage to the King of Pop. They've even paid homage to Carlton. For the past few months, the Red Sox outfield has been the baseball world's greatest constant: When Boston wins, they dance.

The Slamtana
Or, how to celebrate your home run by dancing like no one is watching.
The Single Ladies
Look, there are three outfielders. We're just saying.
The Cotton-eyed Joe
While many have tried, only one has truly perfected it.
