Dodgers' Dave Roberts Breaks Silence On Viral Beef With Padres' Mike Shildt
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres are involved in one of the more bitter rivalries in baseball. This rivalry has especially gotten a bit chippy over the last few years as the two teams have remained near the top of the National League, often meeting at the end of the year with the season on the line. Earlier this season, the Dodgers and Padres got into it again, ending with the managers, Dave Roberts of the Dodgers and Mike Shildt of the Padres, in a shouting match during a benches-clearing incident. These two managers clearly aren't fond of each other, but months after, the latest dustup, Roberts is working to put it behind him. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - AUGUST 15: Dave Roberts #30 of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Mike Shildt #8 of the San Diego Padres meet with umpires before the game between the San Diego Padres and... LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - AUGUST 15: Dave Roberts #30 of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Mike Shildt #8 of the San Diego Padres meet with umpires before the game between the San Diego Padres and the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium on August 15, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. More"I'm past it. I'm focused on our club and winning tonight. So that's, I have no thought of it. I really don't. I just want us to play well," Roberts said recently, according to The Athletic's Fabian Ardaya. Putting this incident behind him is the only way for Roberts to move forward. If he were to take to the media and continue to drag Shildt through the mud, the entire incident would turn into a bit of a circus. The only way for Roberts to keep his team on task and focused is to dismiss the entire event. It's a professional response from the professional Dodgers manager. But that doesn't necessarily mean he's put the entire ordeal behind him. There's likely always going to be a bit of animosity between the two parties. More MLB: Kyle Tucker $500 Million Deal?
