Manny Machado said he had no ill intent when throwing a ball into the Dodgers dugout that nearly hit Dave Roberts between innings of Game 2. Dave Roberts isn't so sure.
During Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Sunday night, San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado threw a ball toward the Dodgers dugout between innings that almost hit manager Dave Roberts. Roberts told reporters Monday he didn’t notice the throw at the time but later saw a video of the incident, calling it “unsettling.
“I throw balls all the time into the dugouts, both dugouts,” Machado said. “I mean they have foul balls, you know, you throw the ball back in there.” On Monday, Machado gave this comment about the situation, according to the San Diego Union Tribune. “I spoke about this last night after the game,” he said. “I’ve already turned the page, and I’m just looking forward to playing in front of our fans tomorrow and preparing for another tough battle against a very good team.
