Giants bring the 'Yes Movement' to San Francisco
Welcome to the "Yes!" Movement.
WWE wrestler Daniel Bryan is no stranger to influencing baseball culture. Last season, the diminutive WWE World Heavyweight Champion engaged in a widely publicized beard growing competition with Oakland Athletics outfielder Josh Reddick.
This season, following Bryan's arrival on a national stage at Wrestlemania XXX, his signature catchphrase has found its way into the San Francisco Giants locker room.
For the uninitiated, Bryan has risen to fame for throwing his hands in the air and shouting "Yes!" while the thousands of fans in attendance respond in unison. When the entire audience gets going it can be quite a spectacle.
When new Giants outfielder Tyler Colvin hit his first homerun with the team on Monday night, he "Yes!"'d his way into the dugout.

The new celebration is something the Giants players hope catches on.
