Coming off a Dodger win in Colorado on Saturday, outfielder Yasiel Puig decided to celebrate.
Puig returned to his Denver hotel after the game and crashed the prom of Chatfield High School. "After we won, I came to surprise some students at their prom dance," he tweeted in Spanish with a photo of him posing with several students.
