Giants slugger Joc Pederson detailed what led to his altercation with Reds outfielder Tommy Pham on Friday, explaining that the spat was indeed the result of a fantasy football disagreement.
Speaking with reporters after San Francisco’s 5–1 loss, Pederson revealed that he had no advance notice that Pham was going to approach him during the series in Cincinnati. As the Giants warmed up in the outfield, Pham confronted Pederson and slapped him in the cheek before the pair was eventually separated.
