Alcides Escobar's son showed off his bat-flipping skills in a youth baseball game
In the Major Leagues, bat flips are something of a controversial topic; some view them as fun expressions of joy while others bemoan them as disrespectful to the opposing team. In youth baseball, however, there can be no question that a flip of the bat comes from a place of pure elation.
It's like that song we all sing in our youths: When you're happy and you know it, flip your bat. Young Escobar knew he was happy.
