Chris Taylor’s Dodgers teammates had the perfect reward for the star after he hit a clutch walk-off home run Wednesday night — CHAMPAGNE SHOWERS!!
L.A. doused the utility man from head to toe in bubbly after he hit a two-run blast in the bottom of the 9th inning of the National League Wild Card game against the St. Louis Cardinals … and the video of the celebration is amazing.

The Dodgers posted the footage shortly after the 3-1 win that sent them onward in the playoffs … and you can see in the clip, Taylor and the guys were loving it!!
Chris was giving a speech in the locker room about how his hit was “just the start” — when all of the guys uncorked their bottles and sprayed him down.
Of course, after hitting Taylor, everyone else got in on the showers too — with stars like Cody Bellinger, Walker Buehler and Trea Turner going topless for the party.
The celly was well deserved — the Cards put up a hell of a fight at Dodger Stadium — but the team won’t have long to shake off any sort of hangover.
Up next for the Dodgers is an NLDS matchup with the S.F. Giants — a team with the best record in baseball.
Series kicks off Friday … good luck
