That’s certainly some foul ball.
The San Diego Padres’ Jurickson Profar lost his cool on Friday night in Game 3 of the NL Championship Series against the Philadelphia Phillies after getting a very questionable call.
Profar was called out on strikes by the third-base umpire, who judged he had swung at a pitch well inside with the count at 3-2. The Padres star started to head toward first base to take his walk before seeing the umpire’s call and launching into an expletive-laded tirade.

Profar could be seen shouting, “F*** you,” at the umpire before he was tossed from the game by the home-plate ump. The call came at a crucial stage in the game, with the Padres trailing the Phillies 4-2 in the ninth inning.
“It should’ve been a walk,” the player said after the game.
