When Reds outfielder Tommy Pham slapped Giants outfielder Joc Pederson in the face before the San Francisco-Cincinnati game last Friday, it resulted from a disagreement between the two in a fantasy football league from a year ago.
When reporters asked 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr about being the player at the center of the wild incident on Wednesday, he had a smile on his face, saying it was a “crazy” situation.
“Robbie [Gould] was the first person that told me about it,” Wilson said. “I guess I was just honored to be in the conversation. Shout out to Joc for having me on the team and taking one for the team.”
