In what is becoming a trend in Major League Baseball, a player celebrated a hit on Sunday by pumping his fist and saying, “Fight!” just like President Trump did after last weekend’s assassination attempt.
Taylor Walls, a shortstop with the Tampa Bay Rays, hit a double at Yankee Stadium and then performed the now iconic move begun by the 45th president of the United States.

Walls was not the only major leaguer to perform a Trump-themed celebration on Sunday. St. Louis’Alec Burleson and several teammates raised “Fight!” fists after Burleson’s second-inning solo home run against Atlanta.
