Dodgers Star Debuts ‘Crotch Bump’, Drops F-Bomb on Live TV in Playoff Win
Enrique “Kiké” Hernández came to play in the decisive Game 5 of the National League West Division Series on Friday night, hitting a clutch home run, making the internet go wild with a below-the-belt celebration, and dropping a deliberate F-bomb on live television.
With two outs in the second inning, Hernández, 33, smashed the first pitch from San Diego Padres ace Yu Darvish over the left field fence, giving the Dodgers a precious 1-0 lead. It was Hernández’s 14th career homerun in post-season play and he even paused to admire his blast as it soared 428 feet into the stands.
After crossing home plate, Hernández greeted Dodgers teammate Gavin Lux, exchanged low fives, and then both athletes thrust their hips together in a “crotch bump,” the below-the-belt celebration that immediately went viral.
