Tatís Jr. and Machado Have to be Separated in Dugout After Heated Confrontation

Padres shortstop Fernando Tatís Jr. and third baseman Manny Machado had to be separated during their game against the Cardinals on Saturday. It's unclear what started the argument, but it occurred after Tatís Jr. struck out in the fifth inning.

"It's not about you," Machado screamed at Tatís Jr. "It's not f------ about you."

Frustrations got the better of the two players during the altercation and were separated in dugout and can be seen taking the field shortly after. The Padres ended up losing the game 3–2 and Tatís Jr. had one hit in his four at-bats.
