The latest encounter, played on Thursday night, was full of drama, with a total of eight batters hit by pitches, including Shohei Ohtani, who was hit by a pitch in the bottom of the ninth inning.\n\nThe tension was palpable in Dodger Stadium, where the fans, already in their majority, had left their seats. Ohtani, after being hit by a fastball at 100 mph in the right shoulder blade, calmed the spirits by raising his left hand and asking his teammates not to intervene.\n\nThe game had already exploded with emotions. In the top of the eighth inning, Fernando Tatis Jr. was hit on the right hand by a 93 mph pitch from Dodgers rookie reliever Jack Little.\n\nThis incident marked the fifth time the Dodgers have hit Tatis since the start of the 2024 season, including three times in the last nine days. Padres manager Mike Shildt went to the opposing dugout, which led to a confrontation with Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.\n\nThe situation escalated rapidly, with both teams emptying their benches, although calm was restored before any punches were thrown. At the end of the night, two managers, a bench coach, and a pitcher were ejected. The Padres won 5-3.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>\u201cThey need to put a candle out for Tati tomorrow,\u201d Padres star Manny Machado declared. \u201cHopefully the scans come back negative. It\u2019s not a good place to get hit. I don\u2019t care who it is, I don\u2019t care who\u2019s on the mound.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<cite>Manny Machado<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nTatis, visibly affected, was wearing a bandage on his right hand and expressed his concern about his physical condition. Initial X-rays were inconclusive, and a CT scan was scheduled to determine the severity of the injury.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0620%2Fr1509016_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Shohei Ohtani\" title=\"\"><figcaption>Shohei Ohtani fue golpeado por un lanzamiento por segunda vez en la serie contra los Padres el jueves por la noche.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\nThe rivalry between these teams has intensified, as demonstrated by the fact that the Dodgers have hit Tatis six times in his career, while the other 28 teams in the league have hit him only four times.\n\nThe tense atmosphere manifested itself from the start of the series. On Monday, Andy Pages was hit in the left elbow. The next day, Tatis was hit in the back and Ohtani in the leg, resulting in Roberts&#8217; first ejection of the season.\n\nShildt wasn&#8217;t sure if the hits were intentional, but he stated that he wouldn&#8217;t stand idly by. Roberts, for his part, believes the Padres intentionally hit Ohtani, and pointed out the difficulty of the pitch.\n\nWith the series concluded, the Dodgers maintain a 3.5-game lead over the San Francisco Giants in the National League West Division. The Padres, for their part, are five games behind.\n\nThe teams will not face each other again until August.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clash of Titans: Dodgers and Padres in a Game Marked by Tension The clash between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres continues to ignite the rivalry on the diamond.
