One of the benefits of the intrasquad game is that when there’s mad taunting, you know that it’s all in good fun. Like when Willson Contreras absolutely destroys one off of Tyler Chatwood, and then mugs the hell out of him with a very deliberate bat flip.

STARING HIM DOWN. But Len’s laugh summed it up. It’s all a little light showmanship among friends.
See, he was just having fun:
Willson Contreras gave a little playful look and fist pump in the direction of the opposing dugout after launching his fourth intrasquad homer of Summer Camp. Absolutely crushed the Chatwood pitch. Landed about 3/4 up the left-center bleachers. pic.twitter.com/8Wkdeb03rL

That’s already Contreras’s FOURTH homer of the summer intrasquad set – he’s basically homering in every game he plays. Get this man to the regular season already.
