Jurickson Profar’s ground-rule double in the tenth inning cut San Diego’s deficit to one run vs the Washington Nationals.
However, the fan’s complaint was about Profar’s 0–2 pitch.
Outfielder Jesse Winker was interrupted by a Padres fan as the Nats hurried off the field.
Although it’s difficult to hear the whole thing, the supporter is heard referring to the pitch as “cheap” and “bush league.” The admirer added that he is sixty-six years old.
The intentional walk to Luis Arraez one batter earlier, he did mention, made him feel “disrespected.”
Instead of looking around to celebrate with his teammates, Jurickson Profar yelled at the Nationals’ dugout for the deliberate walk that loaded the bases and challenged them at that very moment. An announcer for the Nationals commented, “So, some drama,” pointing out that Winker, Keibert Ruiz, and Ildemaro Vargas were standing on the warning track watching them rejoice.
Tuesday’s game began with the benches clearing after a brief exchange of barbs between Profar and Ruiz. Shortly afterward, MacKenzie Gore struck Profar with a pitch, but was not it.
