Fun: The origin of the high-five
Apparently the first known high-five was between Dodger outfielders Glenn Burke and Dusty Baker after Baker hit a grand slam in Game 2 of the 1977 National League Championship Series. Although this happened a little before I was watching baseball, I am a big Dodgers fan, so I find myself taking pride in this for some reason. I'm sure that this interesting bit of trivia is debatable. Kick the link for more information, including a story of how seriously Baker took the high-five:
