WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE
Tatis slammed his helmet in the dugout and Machado started to yell at Tatis. The two had to be separated in the dugout.
"It’s not viewed negatively," Tingler told reporters after the game. "We’re a family. We’re not going to discuss the details, but we care. There’s passion. There’s frustration. Those are all emotions that are natural, and those things happen."

San Diego lost a 2-0 lead and lost the game 3-2 to the Cardinals, further hurting their chances of attaining a wild-card spot.
"I think any time stakes are high and everybody knows what’s at stake, anything can happen," Tingler added. "We can have disagreements, but we still love each other, we play for each other, we care about one another, and so when you have those strong emotions on both sides things happen. I can't predict what's going to happen the next couple weeks."
