A GIF and a Tune: Melky Cabrera and Rimsky-Korsakov

After hitting a dinger, Melky Cabrera proceeded to proceed through the dugout, giving false high fives all around.

In honor of Melky’s grand promenade, I offer the dulcet tones of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s Procession of the Nobles.

Watch:

Noble, indeed.

Great stuff. I was expecting “Flight of the Bumblebee” but this works just fine.
