Video emerged showing one Padres player screaming at the umpires and another joining in after the controversial called strikeout against Xander Bogaerts that played a role in San Diego’s season-ending 3-1 loss to the Cubs on Thursday in Game 3 of the NL wild-card series at Wrigley Field.
The Padres went out with a whimper offensively, but they sure didn’t hold back on the umpires after their season ended.
Video emerged showing one Padres player screaming at the umpires and another joining in after the controversial called strikeout against Xander Bogaerts that played a role in San Diego’s season-ending 3-1 loss to the Cubs on Thursday in Game 3 of the NL wild-card series at Wrigley Field.
While the umpires headed to their room with “Go, Cubs, Go” blaring in the background, one Padres player in a hoody walked toward the umpires and appeared to get in their faces.
Padres manager Mike Schildt held that player back before things turned truly ugly, while a second player, standing behind them, leaned over the rail to give them his thoughts.
