Prince Fielder celebrates Rangers ALDS win by tumbling out of the dugout

The Texas Rangers won a stressful one Friday, beating the Toronto Blue Jays in 14 innings to take a commanding 2-0 lead in the ALDS.

Considering everything that was on the line, you couldn't blame the Rangers dugout for celebrating the victory once the game finally ended.

One of the players who really wanted to join the celebration on the field was Prince Fielder. In order to get out there quickly, Fielder attempted to hop over the dugout fence. It didn't go well.

Fielder tumbled onto the dirt in front of the dugout. He was quickly picked up by a couple teammates, and proceeded to run out onto the field. It's tough to tell from the above video, but we think there's a smile on Fielder's face as he gets up and begins running again.

Despite the embarrassing moment, we're glad Fielder never abandoned the celebration. His pride may have been hurt, but he persevered.

The Rangers slogan this postseason is "Never Ever Quit." We're glad Fielder not only practices that mantra on the field, but also during team celebrations.
