Padres News: Fernando Tatis Jr‘s Interesting Coping Method for Heckling Fans
We all knew that Fernando Tatis Jr. wasn't going to enter the most welcoming of environments whenever playing in away games this season. The whole world turned their backs on him this past year and a half and outside of Padres fans, many people have not been able to forget his mistakes.
The boo's started all the way back in Spring Training when the Friars were taking on an NL West Rival in the Los Angeles Dodgers and the crowd was letting him hear. However, Tatis revealed that he loves to hear them rain down and that it's part of the game.
But Chicago Cubs fans took it to a whole other level in their matchup on Wednesday. They resorted to chanting 'He's on steroids' while Nando was in the outfield and he could not help but respond in the funniest way possible. He broke out into a dance on par with their rhythm.. take a look for yourself.
There really isn't much that any fanbase can throw at the 24-year-old superstar that will faze him. He's already heard the worst of words these past seasons that he was unable to suit up and was honest about going through some mental battles.
But his teammates have assured they have his back through it all. Tatis has only been back for five games this season and hasn't found his footing just yet with only four hits in 24 plate appearances.
But don't lose any faith in the kid... he's still the future of the franchise and his adjustments will be very important to how the rest of this season plays out for San Diego.
And if El Niño is going to get boo'd in every away game he plays, he's making sure that he looks his best while doing so. His new custom cleat collection inspired by the Air Jordan 1 sneaker line is one of the best in the game right now.
Nando will be back to star form sooner rather than later.
