When the 2022 regular season started, the Astros did not have their best shortstop, Carlos Correa, by their side. And at once, it seemed like the Astros would be in some trouble. But thanks to their visionary manager Dusty Baker, the Astros are in safe hands. Recently, Baker also celebrated the ALDS win in a never-seen style.
Houston Astros’ manager Dusty Baker was in some mood
Dusty Baker is that person who not only held the team together but also constructed one of the most lethal squads in the entire MLB. And he did it after losing the current-best shortstop to a rival team.
When talking about the post-game celebration, just like all the Astros players, manager Baker also celebrated this much-needed win in Seattle. Even at 73, the veteran manager showed some dance moves with his players.
Taking to Twitter, the Astros fans also shared their reaction after watching the Astros manager’s dance. Several fans even said that Baker deserves to get a ring because of his unmatched passion for the game.
