We've seen Yasiel Puig lick his bat from time to time, but kissing the helmet?
The question: Why did Xander Bogaerts give his batting helmet a smooch before he put it away after his three-run homer in the seventh inning that broke open the Red Sox' 8-1 victory over the Dodgers on Friday night at Fenway Park?
The answer: Because it wasn't really his helmet.
On Twitter, @RedSoxStats was quick to notice Bogaerts give the lid a peck before he shelved it in the dugout. WEEI.com's Rob Bradford was quick with the answer.
With Leon likely in the lineup tonight to catch Chris Sale, perhaps they'll share the helmet to keep the good luck going. Bogaerts thought he had hit a double and slid into second before second base umpire Pat Hoberg emphatically left him know he could continue around the bases.
And take good care of that helmet.
