When Paige Spiranac clashed with famous baseball teams’ fans

Paige Spiranac is not afraid of controversies. The ex-professional golfer is often found giving statements that could easily get anyone in trouble online. But for the golf beauty, it’s kind of an everyday thing. Adding to her social media adventures, Spiranac once got into a squabble involving the famous baseball team San Diego Padres.

The American professional baseball team hails from San Diego. And Spiranac has an old connection with the place. The ex-professional player used to play at San Diego State University in her early days on the field. However, putting her opinions out in the world has always been her top priority.

The team was already trying to recover after the Los Angeles Dodgers crushed the Padres in NLDS’s Game 1. But Spiranac decided to take another blow at them. Expressing her honest outlook about their apparel, Spiranac tweeted, “The Padres uniforms are terrible and I’m not just saying that because a Padres fan told me to choke on a d–k today,”.

Spiranac’s tweet got tons of reactions from fans across the world. And when someone disagreed with her opinion, she decided to double-deck things with another comment. According to the fan, the team’s uniform could be “easily top 3 in the mlb,”. However, the golf gorgeous replied, “The tan/brown pinstripes is not a good look,”.

After trolling Padres’ fans on Twitter and questioning their loyalty, Spiranac received tons of reactions from them. And they were not in her favor. And to apologize for her statements, she wrote, “Tonight I learned Padres fans are scary and to never question their loyalty again. I’m sorry,”.

It is not very often that people get to see Spiranac apologizing for her words. However, it looks like even her opinions can turn out to stand against her own fan base at times.
