The Little Leaguer who was suspended for his bat-flip celebration just had his ban overturned.

TMZ Sports has confirmed Gloucester County Chancery Judge Robert Malestein ruled in the youth baseball player's favor on Thursday ... just two days after the boy's father, Joseph Rocco, sued Little League to get his son's punishment thrown out.

Malestein said part of the basis for his decision centered on official Little League accounts previously celebrating bat flips.

"If you're gonna have rules and enforce them, they can't be enforced arbitrarily and capriciously," Malestein said in court, according to the New York Post.
