Bautista still revels in playoff heroics against Texas Rangers

Toronto slugger Jose Bautista spoke at a fund-raising dinner for the Louisville Cardinals baseball team on Jan. 29. The presentation included a video clip of Bautista's epic bat flip after a long three-run homer that sent the Texas Rangers to a 6-4 loss in Game Five of the American League Division Series.

Bautista told the Canadian Press in a telephone interview that seeing the homer triggers a rush of feelings.

``It brings back all the same emotions that I felt at that moment," said Bautista, who homered off reliever Sam Dyson. ``Satisfaction, joy, that good feeling of doing something positive for your team and putting yourself in a good position to win.
