GIFS: The Blue Jays/Kansas City Royals Ruckus

The Blue Jays and Royals may have entered this past series as indifferent competitors. But after what transpired on Sunday afternoon, I think it's safe to say the Jays/Royals rivalry has suddenly elevated from "low" to "high".

It all started so innocently; Josh Donaldson was hit earlier in the game, but in one of his following at bats, he unleashed this epic bat flip after a walk. Perhaps Edinson Volquez thought that Josh Donaldson was trying to show him up here.

Then after Donaldson was thrown at for the third time in the game (two pitches which were right by his head), he finally snapped and voiced his displeasure with home plate umpire Jim Wolf.
