Phillies Manager Gabe Kapler: 'I Love Bat Flips'

Bat flips have become one of the most controversial issues in baseball over the past few years.

The issue came up again last week when A's outfielder Mark Canha apologized for a bat flip after hitting a late, go-ahead homer against the Giants before later taking back the apology and saying that anyone who has a problem with bat flips is silly.

Appearing on the latest episode of the SI Media Podcast, Phillies manager Gabe Kapler, who has his team in first place during his first season as skipper, was asked about his stance on bat flips.
