Dusty Baker, who often is credited with helping to pull off the first high five, is looking for recommendations on what could be the next high five now that coronavirus has forced everyone to be more hygienic.

The Astros manager teamed up with SC Johnson and Save the Children to create an online challenge - #TheNextHighFive – to try to come up with a better alternative to the traditional high five.

In a video posted to the Astros’ Twitter account, Baker demonstrates a non-contact option with his son Darren.

Baker and his Dodgers teammate Glenn Burke delivered what is thought to be the first high five in 1977. Baker gives all the credit to Burke, since he’s the one who put his hand up first and Baker just responded by slapping it.

Way back in the first week of March when teams were discussing coronavirus, players were advised to stop high-fiving and shaking hands. Back then, Baker said: “They say I invented the high five, but it’s more sanitary to do the fist bump.”

Now, he’s hoping fans can come up with even safer options.

“Research shows children learn best through everyday experiences and when learning is fun,” Save the Children president and CEO Janti Soeripto said in a press release. “What better way to engage children and families in good hygiene habits than #TheNextHighFive Challenge? Save the Children extends its thanks to SC Johnson and Dusty Baker for partnering on this initiative, as well as helping greater Houston, where we have been supporting the community’s most vulnerable children since Hurricane Harvey in 2017.”
