The rivalry between the Padres and the Dodgers seems to have reached its peak, after last Thursday night’s clashes, which ended with several confrontations.

It all started when Fernando Tatis Jr. was hit on the hand, which caused both teams to square off in a tense on-field exchange. This happened during the final inning of the Padres’5-3 victory, and there was concern for the physical condition of the Dominican outfielder.

What happened to Fernando Tatis Jr.?

After this hit, Tatis was seen with a look of pain on his face, causing concern for the entire team, including Manny Machado, the San Diego third baseman, who did not hide his annoyance after the incident and sent a blunt warning to the Dodgers.

Let’s hope the tomography comes back negative. The Dodgers have to pray that it comes back negative tomorrow. They better light a candle

With these statements, the player is referring to the study that would be carried out on his teammate after receiving his third hit in just over a week. However, the first results of the CT scan on Tatis were negative, although the player clarified that there is still some uncertainty. “There is a gray area. In the hand there are many bones, and more studies are needed to rule out a small fracture,”Tatis explained after the game.

Mike Shildt furious over pitch to Tatis

The situation escalated quickly when Tatis was hit by a pitch from right-hander Jack Little at a time when the game was already virtually decided. Padres manager Mike Shildt entered the field visibly upset, confronting Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. Both managers were ejected after the umpires managed to calm things down.

For his part, Dave Roberts said there was no intention to hit the Padres outfielder, but expressed his displeasure with Shildt‘s reaction, accusing him of taking it personally.

Tension increased minutes later, when Padres relieverRobert Suarez hit Shohei Ohtani with a pitch in the back. Ohtani chose not to react to the situation and even called for calm from his teammates, which avoided a major conflict, while Suarez was ejected by the umpires for the aggression.
