LOS ANGELES (AP) — Shohei Ohtani was hit by a pitch from San Diego Padres starter Randy Vásquez in the third inning Tuesday night, and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was ejected after arguing on the field in a tense game between the NL West rivals.
The Dodgers won 8-6 in the second of four games this week.

In the top of the inning, Dodgers reliever Lou Trivino plunked Fernando Tatis Jr., the second time the slugger has been hit by the Dodgers this season. Tatis left the clubhouse without speaking to media after the game.
Ohtani was hit in the right leg just above his knee, drawing heavy boos from the crowd. Ohtani spun around and limped toward first, but he was soon laughing with Padres first baseman Luis Arráez.
“That was our part of our plan to go inside and we were able to execute the pitch,” Vásquez said through a translator. "It wasn’t intentional at all.”
Roberts said Ohtani was “absolutely” hit on purpose.
“I give him credit because they hit him in the leg. Own it, and we move on,” he said. "It’s not a misfire. I do feel it was intentional. Again, that’s part of baseball, which we all understand.”
The umpires warned both benches, and crew chief Marvin Hudson told Roberts not to come out of the dugout. He did anyway and had an animated discussion with Hudson along the third base line, telling him, “I just want to talk.” Roberts grew increasingly angry while gesturing sharply.
“I didn’t feel a warning on both sides was warranted,” Roberts said. “I wanted an explanation on their thought process. I didn’t come in hot. I just wanted to know why. At that point in time, I realized later I got tossed, which I didn’t understand or appreciate.”
Third base umpire Tripp Gibson came over and moved himself in front of Hudson to separate the crew chief and Roberts. Gibson tossed Roberts, his first ejection this season and the 13th of his career.
“He can’t argue the warnings, so we had to get rid of him,” Hudson told a pool reporter after the game. “He had to be ejected.”
Later, Padres manager Mike Shildt went out and talked to Hudson and home plate umpire Ryan Blakney.
“I said, ‘Hey, is there going to be some discretion here on both sides?’” he said. “That’s when I said to Ryan, ‘What do you got?’ He said, ‘I didn’t have it with any intent, feel good about it.’ I said it doesn’t taste great on our side. He said, ‘I don’t blame you but I didn’t see it.’”
Roberts was watching from his office when he saw Shildt talking to the umpires.
“To see Mike get the opportunity to talk to umpires after I was tossed and (got) their explanation, and he was still in the game. I think what anyone wants is consistency, right?” Roberts said. “I wanted an explanation of what’s going on for their decision making and I got run. Just there was no consistency.”
Dodgers reliever Matt Sauer hit Padres shortstop Jose Iglesias on his left hand with a pitch leading off the seventh. X-rays were negative on Iglesias' hand, Shildt said.
“There was no intent in him getting hit there, in our judgment,” Hudson said in the pool report.
Shildt agreed, saying, “I just thought a ball got away from him based on his initial reaction and based on his ball movement. It’s unfortunate, and our guys weren’t thrilled with it. I’m not thrilled with it, but I also understood.”
In the series opener Monday night, Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages was hit by a pitch from Padres starter Dylan Cease. Pages stared down Cease, Roberts came on the field and one of the umpires stood on the mound in front of Cease.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Federal agents carrying out immigration arrests in Minnesota's Twin Cities region already shaken by the fatal shooting of a woman rammed the door of one home Sunday and pushed their way inside, part of what the Department of Homeland Security has called its largest enforcement operation ever.
In a dramatic scene similar to those playing out across Minneapolis, agents captured a man in the home just minutes after pepper spraying protesters outside who had confronted the heavily-armed federal agents. Along the residential street, protesters honked car horns, banged on drums and blew whistles in attempts to disrupt the operation.
Video of the clash showed some agents pushing back protesters while a distraught woman later emerged from the house with a document that federal agents presented to arrest the man. Signed by an immigration officer, the document — unlike a warrant signed by a judge — does not authorize forced entry into a private residence. A warrant signed by an immigration officer only authorizes arrest in a public area.
Immigrant advocacy groups have done extensive “know-your-rights” campaigns urging people not to open their doors unless agents have a court order signed by a judge.
But within minutes of ramming the door in a neighborhood filled with single-family homes, the handcuffed man was led away and soon gone.
More than 2,000 immigration arrests have been made in Minnesota since the enforcement operation began at the beginning of December, said Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin.
The Twin Cities — the latest target in President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement campaign — is bracing for what is next after 37-year-old Renee Good was shot and killed by an immigration officer Wednesday.
“We’re seeing a lot of immigration enforcement across Minneapolis and across the state, federal agents just swarming around our neighborhoods,” said Jason Chavez, a Minneapolis city councilmember. “They’ve definitely been out here.”
Chavez, the son of Mexican immigrants who represents an area with a growing immigrant population, said he is closely monitoring information from chat groups about where residents are seeing agents operating.
People holding whistles positioned themselves in freezing temperatures on street corners Sunday in the neighborhood where Good was killed, watching for any signs of federal agents.
More than 20,000 people have taken part in a variety of trainings to become “observers” of enforcement activities in Minnesota since the 2024 election, said Luis Argueta, a spokesperson for Unidos MN, a local human rights organization .
“It’s a role that people choose to take on voluntarily, because they choose to look out for their neighbors,” Argueta said.
The protests have been largely peaceful, but residents remained anxious. On Monday, Minneapolis public schools will start offering remote learning for the next month in response to concerns that children might feel unsafe venturing out while tensions remain high.
Many schools closed last week after Good’s shooting and the upheaval that followed.
While the enforcement activity continues, two of the state’s leading Democrats said that the investigation into Good's shooting death should not be overseen solely by the federal government.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and U.S. Sen. Tina Smith said in separate interviews Sunday that state authorities should be included in the investigation because the federal government has already made clear what it believes happened.
“How can we trust the federal government to do an objective, unbiased investigation, without prejudice, when at the beginning of that investigation they have already announced exactly what they saw — what they think happened," Smith said on ABC’s "This Week."
The Trump administration has defended the officer who shot Good in her car, saying he was protecting himself and fellow agents and that Good had “weaponized” her vehicle.
Todd Lyons, acting director of ICE, defended the officer on Fox News Channel’s “The Sunday Briefing.”
"That law enforcement officer had milliseconds, if not short time to make a decision to save his life and his other fellow agents,” he said.
Lyons also said the administration’s enforcement operations in Minnesota wouldn't be needed “if local jurisdictions worked with us to turn over these criminally illegal aliens once they are already considered a public safety threat by the locals.”
The killing of Good by an ICE officer and the shooting of two people by federal agents in Portland, Oregon, led to dozens of protests across the country over the weekend.
Thousands of people marched Saturday in Minneapolis, where Homeland Security called its deployment of immigration officers in the Twin Cities its biggest ever immigration enforcement operation.
