Watch: Fernando Tatis Jr. unfazed by boos from Dodgers fans in NLDS Game 2

The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres' storied rivalry is in full flow in the NLDS this season. Padres superstar Fernando Tatis Jr. is no stranger to copping blows from fans and the outfielder had the attention of Dodgers fans in Game 2 of the division series at Dodger Stadium.

Tatis Jr. became the thorn in the Dodgers fans' sight after the Padres slugger gave his team the lead with a solo home run against Jack Flaherty in the top of the first inning.

When Tatis Jr. returned to right field after his moonshot, boos rang around the Dodgers Stadium, letting the Padres star know about the feelings of the home crowd. However, Tatis was unfazed by the antics.

Fernando Tatis Jr. receives heat from Dodgers fans in heated Game 2

The NLDS series opener had the fans on the edge of their seats as the Dodgers came back from behind to clinch Game 1. However, things took a nasty turn on Sunday as fans seemingly lost their cool, throwing objects in the direction of the Padres players.

Jurickson Profar, who had a stellar home run robbery off Mookie Betts in the first inning, witnessed bottles thrown in his direction in the outfield, causing a delay in the seventh inning.

Objects were thrown towards Fernando Tatis Jr. later in the game, confirmed ESPN insider Alden Gonzalez.

​

"Now a bunch of fans have thrown objects in Fernando Tatis Jr.'s direction in right field. There are close to 20 security guards standing along the foul lines and play is still delayed. I've never seen anything like this."

Fernando Tatis Jr.'s home run was followed by a two-run homer by David Peralta in the second and NL Rookie of the Year contender Jackson Merrill added another run after an RBI single in the sixth.

Merrill, in the midst of a breakthrough year for the Padres, smoked a two-run shot in the eighth to take the team to a 6-1 lead.
