The Boston Red Sox slugger has been known to flip his bat after hitting a home run throughout his 20-year career, and Ortiz is not a fan of the chatter that occurs when talking about showmanship at the plate.
“People want to talk about old school. I am old school,” Ortiz said, per Alex Speier of the Boston Globe. “How many [expletives] are in the game right now who played in 1997 in the big leagues?”
It's not just Ortiz who has expressed himself by flipping a bat after launching a baseball over the wall.
