What ‘bothered' Dodgers' Dave Roberts about Mike Shildt coming after him

The post What 'bothered' Dodgers' Dave Roberts about Mike Shildt coming after him appeared first on ClutchPoints. As the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres managers in Dave Roberts and Mike Shildt, went at it on Thursday night after players were pelted, the rivalry no doubt has reached new heights. With the Padres' skipper having a rant at the Dodgers about hitting their players, Roberts would speak about the incident that took place. Advertisement While it wasn't the first time, star Fernando Tatis Jr. would be hit by a pitch in the top of the ninth inning, which led to Shildt approaching the mound to check on his player, but also walked towards Roberts and the Los Angeles dugout. Shildt took issue with the team, as this led to Roberts approaching him, giving him a light shove as the dugouts were cleared. Roberts would give insight into why Shildt confronting him 'bothers' the manager, according to ESPN. 'Obviously,' Roberts said, 'I think anyone knows there was no intent.' 'And so as [Shildt] comes out, and he's yelling at me and staring me down, that bothers me,' Roberts continued. 'Because, to be quite frank, that's the last thing I wanted. I'm taking starters out of the game, trying to get this game over with and get this kid a couple innings. I took that personal. Because I understand the game, and I understand that it doesn't feel good to get hit.' The Padres' manager had a strong message for the Dodgers Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images Though the Dodgers and Padres feud with one another is hostile, it wasn't just the hit by pitch on Tatis that happened as a half-inning later, Shohei Ohtani would get pelted. However, he would be seen waving off his teammates to prevent any further confrontation. Advertisement The San Diego manager in Shildt would have a rant after the game about Tatis being hit, since this is the third in the past nine days by Los Angeles, per ESPN. 'We got a guy who's getting X-rays right now, is one of the best players in the game, fortunately on our team, and this guy has taken shots, OK?' Shildt said. 'And before this series, and I can back this up with complete evidence, the track records speak for themselves — teams that I manage don't get into altercations like this because teams that I manage don't throw at people. But also, teams I manage don't take anything.' 'And after a while, I'm not going to take it,' Shildt continued. 'And I'm not going to take it on behalf of Tati, I'm not going to take it on behalf of the team, intentional or unintentional. It's really that simple. That's how this game is played. And if you want to call that old-school, then yeah, we'll play old-school baseball.' At any rate, the Dodgers are 46-30 and are first in the NL West as they start a three-game series against the Washington Nationals on Friday night.

Clemson defensive end Will Heldt named a transfer who 'could swing' the Tigers' CFP hopes

Clemson offensive line ranked Top 10 heading into 2025 by two ESPN analysts CBS Sports recently identified transfer portal additions who could have the biggest impact on the 2025 College Football Playoff race, and one of Clemson's newest faces made the cut. Junior defensive end Will Heldt, a transfer from Purdue, was named the Tigers' most important portal pickup in the outlet's post-spring Top 25 feature. CBS Sports' Chris Hummer singled out Heldt as a player who 'could swing College Football Playoff hopes,' pointing to both his production and timing. The 6-foot-6, 265-pound edge rusher arrives at Clemson after two strong seasons in the Big Ten, and more importantly, he represents a rare step into the transfer portal by Dabo Swinney. 'Clemson finished last season ranked 59th in pressure rate, well below where you expect the Tigers to sit after finishing fourth, 22nd, 11th and 15th in that category across the last four seasons,' Hummer wrote. 'Heldt helps address that shortcoming. He posted 10 TFLs and five sacks for Purdue last season and should form one of the best edge rusher duos in the country with T.J. Parker. Plus, Heldt's presence itself is a bit of a swing factor in the playoff race. He's the first significant transfer take of Dabo Swinney's career.' Heldt played in all 24 games for Purdue from 2023 to 2024, compiling 68 total tackles, 11 tackles for loss, five sacks, and a fumble recovery. Last fall, he started all 12 games and was second on the team in both sacks and tackles for loss while ranking fourth in total tackles. Two of his best games came in back-to-back weeks against ranked opponents, where he tallied 2.5 sacks and returned a fumble 16 yards for a touchdown. Originally from Carmel, Indiana, Heldt was ranked No. 28 overall by ESPN among the top 100 transfer players this offseason. He was also recently featured in a CBS Sports breakdown of players 'most likely to make an immediate impact on the ACC' in 2025. With two years of eligibility remaining, Heldt not only fills a critical need for Clemson up front, but also marks a philosophical shift for Swinney — who had long resisted the transfer portal before adding Heldt. His arrival is expected to play a significant role in the Tigers' push back into the national spotlight.

Jay Johnson says Kade Anderson should be No. 1 overall pick in MLB draft to Nationals

If Game 1 of the College World Series championship series marked the last time Kade Anderson starts for LSU baseball, the 6-foot-2 left-hander sure put on quite the memorable outing as he went the distance to deliver the Tigers a 1-0 shutout win over Coastal Carolina. It was also a performance that shored up one thing for his coach, Jay Johnson: Kade Anderson should be the No. 1 overall pick to the Washington Nationals in the 2025 MLB Draft. Advertisement "His next pitch should be somewhere in the Washington Nationals organization. It's not close," Johnson said after LSU's win over Coastal Carolina. "... He's the best player in the country. There's nobody closer to the Major Leagues than that right now." REQUIRED READING: LSU baseball vs Coastal Carolina highlights: Kade Anderson pitches CWS Game 1 shutout Anderson's efforts at Charles Schwab Field Omaha not only solidified his LSU legacy but also put him in the College World Series record book with a select handful of pitchers. The native of Madisonville, Louisiana became just the third pitcher to throw a complete game shutout in a CWS finals game since the championship series was added to the tournament format in 2003. Advertisement It was also the second complete game of his career, and the season. His 10 strikeouts increased his nation-leading strikeout number to 180 punchouts in 119 innings of work this year. Of the 130 pitches he threw against Coastal Carolina on the night, 82 of them were for strikes. Johnson's pleas for Anderson to be the No. 1 overall pick in next month's MLB draft weren't the only flowers that he gave his junior ace. The 48-year-old Johnson put Anderson's heroic season and skillset up there with former LSU pitcher Paul Skenes, who went No. 1 overall to the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2023 and has been a phenom since making his debut in May 2024. "He's the best pitcher in college baseball. We had the best pitcher (Paul Skenes) on the planet two years ago in a similar situation. I feel like Kade has a very similar season to that," Johnson said. "And that's how you get here (to CWS). I'm really proud of him. "I think the commonality between the two is the person, the character, the toughness and the team-first attitude."

USA TODAY's Gabe Lacques has Anderson going No. 5 overall to the St. Louis Cardinals in his June 10 mock draft, while ESPN's Kiley McDaniels moved Anderson up to his No. 1 overall pick in his mock draft that came out on June 18. LSU will now look to close the College World Series championship series with a win on June 22 at 2:30 p.m. ET against Coastal Carolina at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Nebraska.
