Boston Red Sox second baseman Isiah Kiner-Falefa isn't quick to forget.
In the seventh inning of Saturday's 5-0 win for the Red Sox, Kiner-Falefa ripped a two-run double and then was seen mocking Orioles infielder Blaze Alexander's celebration from the previous night.

Alexander tried to pump up the Camden Yards crowd with a similar gesture during Friday's game, after his hard slide sparked a benches-clearing brawl.
Kiner-Falefa was quick to point out the origin of his gesture when asked postgame about his celebration.
"Oh, you know what it was, I think everyone knows what it was," Kiner-Falefa said, according to The Boston Herald's Mac Cerullo. "I was just trying to pump the crowd up, so it felt good to pump the crowd up for something good happening and not a double play."
The Red Sox have won the first three contests of the four-game series against the Orioles, dropping Baltimore three games back of the final wild-card spot in the American League.
