MLB fans mock Fernando Tatis Jr. after well-timed advertisement ridicules Dominican star: "That’s 100% on purpose lol"

Baseball fans don’t forget; just ask Fernando Tatis Jr. The San Diego Padres utility man may be one of the league's most dynamic players but his career has been sprinkled with drama and controversy.

Tatis Jr. is working hard to clean up his image. He recently went on camera to apologize after testing positive for using performance enchancing drugs. His 80-game suspension has left a stain on his legacy.

The 24-year-old suffered a motorcycle accident in 2022. It was reported that he received "minor scrapes" but Tatis ended up missing the entire season.

A recent graphic on television has MLB fans cracking up. Tatis was at the plate ready for the first pitch when an advertisement appeared for a "motorcyle accident". The timing could not have been more fitting.

The San Diego Padres signed the Dominican star to a 14-year, 340 million contract in February 2021. The Friars may be wondering if it was worth the investment.

MLB fans took to Twitter after the well-timed comical advertisement that seemed to be perfectly placed.

This might be one of the most well-placed add placement this season when it comes to marketing. The person who was handling the graphics for the channel may have been having some fun at Tatis Jr.'s expense and it seems to have worked out.

Fernando Tatis Jr. recently returned from his suspension and has been exceptional. If anyone thought the Dominican star would have had some rust, they were severely mistaken.

The 2021 All-Star is off to a strong start. Tatis impressed during his stint in the minors and has continued that fine form in the majors.

Over 17 games, he already has four home runs, 10 RBIs and 11 runs over a stretch of just 79 at-bats. Tatis currently has a .280/.306/.512 slash line and a .818 OPS.

At his peak, Fernando Tatis Jr. was one of the league's most dangerous hitters. His ability to hit, hit with power, or work a walk puts fear into most MLB pitchers. The San Diego Padres will be excited about having one of the league's most exciting players back in their lineup.
