MLB teams find new ways to celebrate, from Angels' cowboy hat to Tigers' title belt

The Rally Monkey has been a fixture at Angels Stadium since 2000.

But it wasn't until the Los Angeles Angels' 2002 championship run that it became a popular tradition that players and fans rallied around during games. And while the Rally Monkey is still visible at the Big A, players on the Angels have started a new tradition using a cowboy hat to celebrate a home run.

The Angels aren't the only club that celebrates in grand style after a big play or home run.
