This was just helping us to be more aware of what those things mean.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Last night, Antoan Richardson said Padres coach Mike Shildt yelled at him with &#8220;undertones of racism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This morning, the two spoke and shared an embrace <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/F2c4g2HoPz\">pic.twitter.com\/F2c4g2HoPz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 SF Giants on NBCS (@NBCSGiants) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NBCSGiants\/status\/1514280542480515078?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>On Tuesday night at Oracle Park, Richardson \u2014 who is black \u2014 was ejected in the third inning after Shildt reportedly told Giants manager Gabe Kapler \u201cyou need to control that m*****f******,\u201d referring to Richardson. The Giants\u2019 first base coach walked up the dugout steps to confront Shildt, and was ejected.<\/p>\n<p>Following the game, Richardson said Shildt\u2019s words \u201creeked undertones of racism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat happened was the third base coach from the San Diego Padres was looking into our dugout, and I said, \u2018Can I help you, are you looking for somebody?\u2019 And he says to me: \u2018I didn\u2019t say anything to you.\u2019 I said \u2018I know, I want to know if I can help you.\u2019 At this time, he\u2019s walking toward our dugout,\u201d Richardson told reporters on Tuesday, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.knbr.com\/2022\/04\/12\/giants-3b-coach-antoan-richardson-says-padres-coachs-comments-that-reeked-undertones-of-racism-led-to-ejection\/\">KNBR<\/a>. \u201cHe says, \u2018Hey, I was looking for Alex Wood.\u2019 At that point, Kap came over to kind of defuse the situation. I turned to Woody and I said, \u2018Hey Woody, Shildt is looking for you.\u2019 At that point in time, Shildt started to walk back toward third base. He yelled \u2018You need to control that m*****f*****.\u2019 At that point in time, I went to the top step and said, \u2018excuse me.\u2019 Because I couldn\u2019t believe what I heard. At that point in time, the crew chief decided to toss me from the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI say this because his words were disproportionately unwarranted and reeked undertones of racism when he referred to me as \u2018that m*****f*****,\u2019 as if I was to be controlled or a piece of property or enslaved,\u201d Richardson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.knbr.com\/2022\/04\/12\/giants-3b-coach-antoan-richardson-says-padres-coachs-comments-that-reeked-undertones-of-racism-led-to-ejection\/\">continued<\/a>. \u201cI think it\u2019s just really important we understand what happened tonight. And the second part that\u2019s equally disappointing is that me being tossed by that umpire empowers this coach to continue to have conversations like that with people like me. And that\u2019s really unfortunate that\u2019s that what happened tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shildt apologized on Wednesday for using \u201cinappropriate language,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI appreciate him clearing that up for myself and my family, because it\u2019s really important that that is clear,\u201d Shildt <a href=\"https:\/\/theathletic.com\/news\/giants-antoan-richardson-mike-shildt\/kA6HbMaPKd4T\/\">said<\/a>. \u201cI don\u2019t know Antoan\u2019s heritage, I can\u2019t walk in his shoes. I can only have empathy and love, which I do have and I\u2019ve always had in my life. I used inappropriate language, which is my biggest issue last night, and I apologize for that. And I\u2019m sensitive to Antoan\u2019s rightful understanding of our experiences, of what he feels is oppression that takes place in this world, and unfortunately, there\u2019s still an undercurrent to that. It\u2019s real to people. But also, by no way, shape or form was that in the context of what we discussed and what was said last night.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Richardson said that Shildt is a \u201cbig supporter of the black community\u201d while telling reporters that some words are \u201cvery insensitive to others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is more something we both want to use as an opportunity to bring awareness \u2014 that sometimes words that are harmless are very insensitive to others,\u201d Richardson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/news\/antoan-richardson-mike-shildt-resolve-dispute\">said<\/a>. \u201cAnd it\u2019s just really important that we are conscious of the things that we are saying. Once again, Shildty\u2019s been a big supporter of the black community. I appreciate him taking ownership and understanding the impact of his words.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Giants beat the Padres 2-1 on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><i>Joe Morgan is the Sports Reporter for The Daily Wire.
