A San Diego Padres fan jawed with Washington Nationals outfielder Jesse Winker following the Padres' walk-off win Monday night because of a 'bush league' pitch.
The San Diego Padres had a wild walk-off win Monday night, but a Padres fan's blood was boiling. San Diego trailed the Washington Nationals by a run in the 10th inning when Jurickson Profar drove in two runs with a ground-rule double. But it was the 0-2 pitch Profar faced that a fan took issue with.
Hunter Harvey buzzed Profar up and in. And when the Nats ran off the field, one Padres fan interrupted outfielder Jesse Winker. The entirety of the audio is tough to make out, but the fan can be heard calling the pitch 'cheap' and 'bush league.' The fan also said he is 66 years old. Profar may have taken offense to the pitch, though. The Nationals' broadcasters noted Profar was shouting at the Nats' dugout as the ball dropped.
He did note an intentional walk to Luis Arraez one batter earlier made him feel 'disrespected.' 'Jurickson Profar not celebrating by looking at his teammates, instead screaming at the Nationals' dugout for the intentional walk that loaded the bases, challenging him in that moment. So, some drama,' a Nationals announcer said, noting that Winker, Ildemaro Vargas and Keibert Ruiz were standing on the warning track watching them celebrate.
Profar's walk-off capped a four-run 10th inning right after the Nats scored three. The Padres swept the Nats in the three-game set, completing it Wednesday with an 8-5 victory. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
