1) Is it really illegal to flip a bat after you hit a homie???
2) Will that bat flipping thing issue matter if the Jays lose??? (hypothetically?)
Why are they making a big fuzz about it???

It's about those unwritten rules about "show-boating" and "admiring your home run".
Personally, I like the one against Baltimore earlier this year. The game wasn't over, so for me personally, I would/might have done that flip if this was in the bottom of the 9th to win. This (at that moment) was just the "go ahead runs".
When you do stuff like that before the game is over, it pisses off the other team, and it might come back to haunt you in the next inning.
Momentum is a crazy thing in sports.
The city quite loud after the game...and not just in the downtown area.
