Jose Bautista bat flip reaction: "Respect the game a little more"



Jose Bautista wasn’t flipping anybody off when he flipped his bat, but some folks sure are flipping out.

In case you missed it, the Blue Jays’ right fielder blasted a two-out, three-run homer in the seventh inning of Game 5 of the ALDS against the Rangers Wednesday to give the Blue Jays their first postseason series victory in 22 years.

Actually, it wasn’t really a bat flip. It was more like a standing bat chuck. The Rockies’ Carlos Gonzalez … now there’s a guy who knows how to flip a bat.
