Bautista should have thst bat shoved up his ass

up the crooked umps ass more like it.

Fuck, wish the Jays woulsn't have peaked so early

Lol that was so fucking amazing.

fuck you

Oh come that bat flip was one of the worst I've ever seen. Joe Carter didn't do that and he won the damn World Series.

shutup

He actually apologized for it. Emotions were running high, so get over it.

<font color=goldenrod>lol what the fuck was AJ Hinch thinking? down 2 in the 8th and instead of bringing in an established reliever he decides to bring in Keuchel, on 2 days rest after throwing 124 pitches in his last game.

he promptly gives up a 3-run bomb to Morales to eliminate any chance of an exciting 9th inning.

I mean yeah a 2 run lead was probably safe with Wade Davis anyway, but still. really dumb decision.</font>

You would have loved it if it was Machado.

Also, Robbie Alomar styled pretty fucking hard on Dennis Eckersley in 1992. If you do it in a big moment, you earn your chance to style on a fool.

Oh man imagine if it was Darren O'Day he hit the home run off of.

Don't mind Droford. He's the same nincompoop who tried to argue in favor of Manny Machado throwing a bat at people and not purposely knocking out a catcher in a erroneously long back swing.

Over under on fights in the ALCS?

Abad threw at Machados surgically repaired knee twice though..

Baltimore is legitimately some of the biggest bunch of pricks along with Kansas city. Always getting involved in bullshit. Note that the benches cleared multiple times in this series, but nobody ever threw at anyone. Baltimore is always up to something salty and Buck Showalter can't contain his little sourpuss fuckface.

Outside of Machado who has Bryce Harper syndrome I don't think that's at all the truth

This Royals/Jays series is gonna be fun. Interested to see if my prediction comes true.

Went to a Jays/Kansas game in August, and Jays won.... nice preview....

Did the Jays peak yet?

I believe they peaked a few weeks ago ruien. Isn't it obvious?

Gonna laugh when the Royals sweep the Jays

Oh god, shutup.

Thé only person who had any real right to be mad at that bat flip is Sam Dyson. But how do you not let that huge rush of intensity go? It's not like he did it during a home run he hit when the jays beat the Orioles 15-2 to clinch. The "unwritten rules" of baseball are usually upheld by douchebags such as Bryan McCann.

Honestly, why are people making a big deal about the bat flip, get over it. This coming from a guy who hates showboaters.

<font color=goldenrod>Even though his comments after the game suggested he was pissed off at the bat flip, I think he really did understand it. The moment that seemed to irk him more was when EE came up next and was actively trying to get the crowd to stop throwing shit. But since it was loud as fuck there and Dyson didn't know what EE was trying to do, he thought EE was trying to play to the crowd before the at-bat even started.</font>

that bat flip was one of the best I've ever seen, when you factor in the context of it all

fuck off @ people who are angry about it

I love bat flips and that one was fantastic

haha

He threw the bat he didn't flip it. Plus he had to work in the sly stare at the pitcher right before he did.

Droford channeling his best STD right now

Lol. Droford's homerism knows no bounds. What really happened was Machado was being a puss after being tagged out too aggressively for his tastes by Josh Donaldson, who in turn was thrown at. Machado was brushed back near the knees in retaliation, who then threw the bat down the line.

Had Machado not been such a sissy he would've avoided being thrown at.

There's no comparison to Harper. You don't hear or see Harper pulling that kind of bullshit at the mlb level.

Bautista played 1400+ regular season games and essentially won the game for his team in their biggest game in 20+ years in his 5th ever postseason game..... give the guy a break for showing a little emotion..... The only robots I want to see on the field are those to replace the umpires, who are and always will be fucking atrocious....

Gonna be fireworks in KC/TO though... neither teams like each other coming off TO's sweep of them at home to start their climb to the top of the AL East

The O's are a bunch of vaginas

Explain.

I love it when somebody shows emotion like that for doing something great. Why win if you can't rub it in somebody else's face?

Ortiz does it. Manny Ramirez did it. It's fine. I guess Droford is just mad cause they haven't peaked yet.

If you're on the other team in any circumstance... Jose Bautista is easy to not like. He's a great team guy, he gets behind his teammates and his intensity and fire are near un matched. But he's salty, and he can be a bit unreasonable, not the most likeable individual, and I get how fans from rival teams with think he's a prick. But that bat flip should have nothing to do with it.

The bat flip and reaction by Bautista was great. Rangers had plenty of chances to avoid that moment with better play or not throwing the ball where Baustita likes to hit his bombs.

Crowd tossing stuff on the field and being too rowdy at times should be the bigger issue to complain and debate about from that game.

You are everything that is wrong with baseball/the world.
