A trio of Giants outfielders celebrated a big win over the Dodgers on Monday night in a very bizarre manner.
Just after San Francisco took down Los Angeles, 9-3, at Dodger Stadium, Jung Hoo Lee, Drew Gilbert and Harrison Bader all met up in centerfield and thrusted on each other.
Broadcast cameras captured the three wrapping their arms around one another and gyrating together multiple times.

Bader and Gilbert really seemed to get a kick out of it, though at one point, Lee sure looked like he was ready for it to be over.

The guys then bolted into the infield without creating any further viral scenes.
The postgame party, while unique, was deserved. Not only did the scuffling Giants beat up their rival, but the evening marked Bader’s first game back since he suffered a hamstring injury in March.
Bader told reporters following the win that everything felt “good,” and he’s “excited to go out there and help this team win” moving forward.
If that all comes with further buzzworthy moments from the centerfielder and his teammates, it certainly seems social media users won’t mind it one bit.
But others online were outraged by the X-rated act.
“Now watch Little Leaguers wanna imitate that s–t,” wrote Carlos Betancourt on X. “Even if we lose, I would sit all 3 players tonight for doing that on live TV and embarrassing the franchise.”

“@NBCSGiants Come on guys you’re high paid professionals and you shouldn’t hump each other like that!” wrote another fan on the social media platform. “All games televised with young viewers and others that can be offended! I will not be surprised if MLB says something along with a fine or suspension!”
