SAN FRANCISCO — Padres acting third base coach Mike Shildt and Giants first base coach Antoan Richardson met Wednesday morning on the field at Oracle Park to clear the air over an incident Richardson made public the previous night.
After the Giants' 13-2 victory over the Padres, Richardson told Bay Area reporters Shildt had used "undertones of racism" in an exchange at the start of the third inning.
Wednesday, Richardson clarified he had not meant to imply Shildt had done so purposefully.
