WATCH: Contreras bat flips after getting walked not once but twice |
CHICAGO — In the seventh inning of the National League Wild Card Game between the Chicago Cubs and the Colorado Rockies Cubs catcher Willson Contreras put on quite a show after drawing a walk. Later, in the ninth, he did the same exact thing after garnering another walk.
On both occasions, Contreras chucked his bat aside with all of the ferociousness of a slugger who just a hit a walk-off home run and roared and motioned toward the Cubs' dugout so as to rally the troops in the tight-knit ballgame. Pumping up the Wrigley faithful in the process, Contreras definitely made the most of most of his trips down the first-base line. Bat flipping on TWO walks? It's not called the mild card, fam. pic.twitter.com/LNrhvvYTLk
