WWE star Daniel Bryan leads San Francisco Giants fans in ‘YES!’ chant (Video)
By Josh Hill
The San Francisco Giants won an 18-inning marathon on Saturday night to take a 2-0 series lead in the NLDS. With the Washington Nationals on their heels, it was looking like the last team into the postseason might knock off the team with the best record in baseball.

Throughout the season the Giants have been using a rallying cry taken directly from WWE superstar Daniel Bryan in which they chant ‘YES!’ three times in response to the question of if the Giants will win a given game.
Naturally, with the team up 2-0 in the NLDS and back home in AT&T Park, the Giants invited Bryan himself to come out and lead the chant he has made famous and that Giants fans have adopted.
The moment ended up being a pretty cool way to get Game 3 of the NLDS going.
Hopefully Bryan is free tomorrow night because the Giants will need him before Game 4, as San Francisco failed to close out the Nationals on Monday. Still, the chant is one of the cooler and more bizarre sports crossovers we’ve seen recently, and as long as the Giants are winning, the more we can expect to see Bryan and his chant featured prominently as part of this run.
