Orioles celebrate Austin Hays leadoff double with "sprinklers" (Video)

Austin Day leads sprinkler celebration, As vs. Orioles, 4/11/2023
The Baltimore Orioles unveiled another fun celebration move during Tuesday's game against Oakland.

It happened in the first inning as O's center fielder Austin Hays led off with a double to left field on a 1-1 pitch. As he reached second base, he broke out the "sprinkler" move as his teammates spit out streams of water as they stood on top of the dugout.

This comes a day after Ryan Mountcastle drinking from a "beer bong" in the dugout went viral after he hit a home run against the A's. We had some concerns about that being taken out of context to promote heavy drinking. Nothing wrong with the sprinkler celly, however. This one is clean, family-friendly fun.

Speaking of Mountcastle, he was the star of Tuesday's game as he went 3-for-4 with 2 HRs and 9 RBI to lead the Orioles to the 12-8 victory. However, Day's performance was not too shabby either, as he went 4-for-5 with a homer and that double for 2 RBI. The Orioles are now a game above .500 and are no longer pushovers in the extremely competitive American League East division. Good to see Orioles fans have something to cheer about.
