“There’s a certain extent to doing it,” Machado said. “Like Bautista’s — Bautista is a different situation; Bautista hit a home run in a playoff game, a championship game. I would have done the same. Everybody in this freaking clubhouse would have done the same thing. It’s part of it. It’s part of the game. You can’t get mad about that.
“Me personally? It’s my freaking dream to freaking be up in the World Series or in a playoff game, bases loaded, hit a freaking grand slam to put your team ahead. I mean, I’m going to pimp the [expletive] out of it just like how he did.
So Machado is already on record saying he won't play the game the right way if the same situation presents itself.
