Benches emptied in the Blue Jays-Braves game Wednesday night after Toronto slugger Jose Bautista homered to left field, stood at home plate and stared toward pitcher Eric O'Flaherty before flipping the bat away with a towering toss in Atlanta.
Jace Peterson said something to Bautista as he rounded first, and Suzuki was waiting for Bautista when he touched home.
No punches were thrown, but O'Flaherty didn't mince words about Bautista's actions.
"That's something making the game tough to watch,'' the pitcher said, referring to previous home run celebrations by the Toronto slugger.
