Geraldo Perdomo backs Padres with bold ‘F**k LA’ post after thrilling NLDS Game 3 win over Dodgers
The National League Division Series between the San Diego Padres and the Los Angeles Dodgers has been one of the most entertaining and hostile of the postseason so far. There has not exactly been any love lost between the NL West rivals and their fans, as tensions between the two clubs have boiled over more than once already.
It's not only the fans in the stadium who have made their allegiances aggressively known but also those online. One such fan is Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Geraldo Perdomo, who made it abundantly clear which team he is rooting for on his Instagram story.
Perdomo shared a video of San Diego Padres superstar Fernando Tatis Jr. clobbering a home run against the Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLDS. While many players have simply praised the quality of the action or impressive performances, Perdomo took it a step further by writing "F**k LA" on his Instagram story.
Perdomo did not have to remind the Los Angeles Dodgers about the effect that Fernando Tatis Jr. has had on the series. The two-time All-Star is yet again proving why he is one of the best players in the MLB, smashing three home runs, five RBIs and a whopping .500 batting average through the NLDS so far.
The San Diego Padres will be looking to secure a NLCS berth on Wednesday night
While Geraldo Perdomo may be cheering against Los Angeles more than he is cheering for San Diego, the Arizona Diamondbacks star could be a happy man if the Dodgers are eliminated on Wednesday night. Game 4 of the NLDS will take place on Wednesday night at PETCO Park in San Diego with the Friars holding one win away from reaching the next round.
Even though the Dodgers have the likes of Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts on the roster, it has been the team's pitching that has let them down. During both losses to the Padres, the Dodgers' pitching staff has allowed 16 runs, something that will need to change ASAP if they hope to continue their push for a World Series title.
If the rest of this series is any indication, Wednesday's action will unquestionably be must-watch television.
