2024 NLDS: Jurickson Profar Declines To Give Dodgers Pitching 'Credit' For Shutting Down Padres
Briefly

"We did a lot of unusual things. We don't want to give credit either, you know, to their pitching. We just didn't come through. Just sad for this team. We had everything to go all the way. But, you know, it's baseball. They played better than us the last two games. And we're going home."
"Back in April, Will Smith made pointed remarks about Profar after the two had exchanged words over a pitch that was up in and in. I don't know what his deal was. He thought we were trying to throw at him. I don't know why he thought that. We were just trying to play baseball."
"Profar's biggest contribution was robbing Mookie Betts of a solo home run in the first inning of Game 2. He nearly repeated the feat on an eerily similar play in Game 3, but had the ball skip off his glove."
"Profar started in left field and hit third in the Padres lineup for each of the five NLDS games. He went a combined 4-for-21 with one run scored, three walks and three strikeouts against the Dodgers."
