The Rays lost yesterday in cruddy fashion, but the taste f the defeat was quckly -- sort of -- washed away when an absolute chaotic brawl broke out between the Texas Rangers, and the Rays upcoming opponent, the Toronto Blue Jays resonating from the bizarre game five of the ALDS last year, particularly Jose Bautista's majestic bat flip.
So, on a routine double play ball, Jose Bautista -- not one to obey baseball's new slide rule -- slid hard into second, wiping out Rougned Odor -- who may or may not have tried to drill Bautista with his throw.
