Mistakes happen, but sometimes they cannot be reversed. They can only be owned up, and that’s what Jurickson Profar did. Profar is a 29-year-old player who got re-signed by the Padres for three years after a great season in 2020.

In the Padres v/s Brewers match last night, Profar made a mistake in the ballpark. After which, he got criticized by his teammates over it. At the end of the sixth inning, Machado, Soto, and Musgrove confronted Profar about his on-field mistake.?

Why was Jurickson Profar criticized by his teammates?

Acting smart does not always work. It certainly did not work for Profar when he caught the ball and challenged the Marlins’ batter to run. However, Profar, for some reason, held onto the ball for a while. It led to a late throw, and for the batter to reach the base on time.

The result of the match could have been 2-0, but because of the mistake made by Profar, it became 3-0. Then, at the end of the sixth inning, when Profar went to the dugout, he faced a heated confrontation with his teammates Soto, Machado, and Musgrove.
