Wrestling masks, hats and a piñata of Buzz Lightyear, the main character in the animated film Toy Story, were part of the angry celebration of the San Diego Padres players after the agonizing victory against the San Francisco Giants.
The video of the celebration was shared through The Dads social networks and interactions quickly began. In just under 12 hours of being shared, the post already had more than 4,000 “likes”, some 700 retweets and 316,000 views.
The game had ups and downs in the domain of the scoreboard. The third inning closed in favor of San Diego 3-2, but in the leadoff of the fourth inning San Francisco came back with a six-run run to prevail 8-3.
Despite San Francisco scoring three more in the seventh inning, San Diego trailed with scores in the fourth, fifth, seventh and eighth innings to leave the final score with a 16-11 victory.
On Sunday night both teams will meet again at the Alfredo Harp Helú Stadium.
