Heliot Ramos trolled the Padres after Xander Bogaerts’ controversial overturned homer

The San Diego Padres needed a win in the worst way on Monday after getting swept over the weekend at Dodger Stadium, and there was reason to believe that a return back home against a San Francisco Giants team that's been among the worst in the sport since acquiring Rafael Devers two months ago, would result in that much-needed victory. Instead, the Giants took a 4-0 lead on the strength of three home runs before the Padres even stepped up to bat, and right when it looked like the Padres had gotten one of those runs back, the run was taken off the board.

Xander Bogaerts hit what looked like a solo shot off Robbie Ray just beyond the outstretched arm of Giants left fielder Heliot Ramos, but after further review, it was deemed to be fan interference.

The Padres, understandably, were not thrilled with this decision, and by arguing the call, Padres manager Mike Shildt got himself ejected from the game.

The home crowd was not having a good time, but Ramos certainly was. He went out of his way to troll the fans after the overturned call, pointing and laughing toward the crowd.

Padres fans clearly weren't fans of that either, as they booed him the next following inning he stepped up to the plate.

Heliot Ramos trolls Padres fans after controversial overturn

An explanation for why the home run was overturned was later revealed:

Objectively, I can't say I agree here. The fan certainly did reach, but I'm not so sure it was over the field of play. I think that was over the wall, making it fair game for the fan to catch as long as he doesn't reach over the wall.

With that being said, though, Ramos got the call, and had every right to have fun with the booing fans. He did just that, and did so in hilarious fashion.

The Giants play the Padres, their NL West rivals, 13 times annually, and there are three more meetings at Petco Park following this game. It's safe to assume Padres fans will give Ramos the same treatment they did on Monday for the rest of this season, and likely beyond, as long as he's wearing a Giants uniform.
