Mina, can you explain in your own words what a bath flip actually is?

So normally, when a baseball player has a big hit, he just kind of gently lays down his

bat, right, and continues on his way down the base path. But sometimes that doesn't happen.

Sometimes a hitter is very proud, and he or she will watch the ball take off and sometimes

they'll pause, sometimes they'll do this while they're running, but instead of gently

laying down the bat, they will launch it into space.

There are many different ways of doing this.

It can be a flick of the wrist.

It can be a throw, a defiant hurl, perhaps.

The bat can travel a few feet.

The bat can travel very far.

But often it sort of twirls through the air,

majestically like a baton. And that's what a

bat flip is. It's almost like spiking a football, Pablo. It's a celebratory gesture. And as you know,

this is something that is taboo in the United States. In Major League Baseball, it violates the unwritten rules and executing this maneuver

will often result in a hitter getting drilled the next time he's up.

But in Korea, bad flips are not only accepted, they're also extremely common.

That was, yes, our own Mina Kimes,

describing a unique feature of baseball in Korea,

the badflip.
