Does this mean throwing the bat because he was mad? Because if that is what you meant, the ball would be dead at the end of playing action, and the offender would be ejected.

No, I mean at the end of his swing he lets go of the bat slinging it several feet or even to the backstop. I do not see a rule in the book, but I've never seen this rule not enforced.
