Fernando Tatis Jr. and Craig Stammen ejected during Padres loss to Rays

Fernando Tatis Jr. was called out for running outside the designated lane while attempting to reach first base on a bunt during the seventh inning of Sunday’s game. The ruling, which nullified a hit with the San Diego Padres leading 3-1, prompted an argument from Tatis Jr. and manager Craig Stammen, leading to the ejection of both. The Tampa Bay Rays later forced extra innings after tying the game in the ninth. The contest concluded in the 11th inning when Jorge Mateo recorded a walk-off hit to secure a 4-3 victory for the Rays. Tatis Jr. expressed frustration after the game regarding the application of the rule, while Stammen suggested the league should review how such plays are officiated.
