Dodgers Fans Threaten Players with Objects During NLDS Game 2
The second game of the National League Division Series (NLDS) between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres turned ugly when fans started throwing objects at players in the bullpen and left fielder Jurickson Profar. The Padres' staff managed to dodge the thrown objects, and the team rallied to win the game 10-2, tying the series at one game apiece. The tension between the teams was high, with Padres third baseman Manny Machado and Dodgers pitcher Jack Flaherty exchanging unpleasantries. The Dodgers Stadium public address announcer had to implore fans to stop throwing objects on the field to avoid ejections. Despite the hostile environment, the Padres kept their focus and took care of business, as manager Mike Shildt put it.
