The gesture is crass, supportive, and perfectly Philly.
Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto celebrates his RBI single during the fifth inning of Game 1 of the baseball NL Championship Series between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday at Citizens Bank Park.After one of their teammates had a big hit, a couple of Phillies players in the dugout put both hands out in front of them, palms facing up, and appeared to be juggling some invisible things.
I thought they were making a crude reference to female anatomy. My husband thought they were making a crude reference to male anatomy. We then proceeded to have a 10-minute debate about the universal double-handed signal for each, which is not a discussion I expected to have in our first year of marriage.
Turns out, my husband was right, and the Phillies didn’t just start doing it during the playoffs, they’ve been doing it for much of the season. . And, it’s hard to argue with the fact that the Phillies are actually hitting big balls — big, beautiful homers that show how incredible this team is, homers that give the fans a chance to show off how amazing they are too.
When it comes down to it, the gesture is both questionable in taste and incredibly encouraging — like Philly, and Phillies fans.
