How an old Roman Anthony TikTok video inspired Red Sox' new celebration
"The dance came from there. I saw [the celebration] for the first time in Cincinnati, and I turned around to one of the coaches and said, 'Now I've gotta explain to my boys what that is all about.' And, in the hotel, boom. They were locked in. Right away."
"We're learning, but we're getting better. Where we're at right now is a good learning experience. It's a young team that got off the blocks slowly."
The Boston Red Sox have revived some celebrations from the previous season, including the 'Wally Head' for home runs. A new routine involves players gesturing toward the dugout after reaching second base, inspired by a TikTok video of outfielder Roman Anthony. Manager Alex Cora noted the dance originated from Anthony's high school video. Despite Anthony's slow start this season, the team is showing improvement, recently achieving their first series win against the Brewers, with Cora emphasizing the importance of learning for the young team.
