Dodgers’ Tanner Scott
Family Targeted With Threats
After Loss To Phillies
Published
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tanner Scott‘s family was targeted with death threats and wishes made toward their kids after a loss … with his wife exposing the hateful comments on social media.
As the Dodgers held a 3-1 lead in the eighth inning, Scott took the mound against the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday … but gave up three earned runs, resulting in a 4-3 loss.
After the final, some baseball “fans” unloaded unhinged messages to Scott’s wife, Maddie … writing wild things like “gun shot your family tonight.”
Maddie shared a screenshot of the hateful words … saying, “When did it stop being a game?”
“I don’t speak out often. Ever actually. I promise you, you don’t know what it’s like unless you’re living it.”
Unfortunately, there was more … with Maddie posting several comments from a user wishing death on their young son, as well as their baby on the way.
“The unfortunate reality Incase [sic] you were curious,” Maddie continued alongside graphic words from the user with detailed wishes for their demise.
Scott and Maddie welcomed their first son in 2023 … and their addition to the family is expected to arrive this fall.
31-year-old Scott joined the Dodgers in 2025 on a four-year, $72 million deal.
It goes without saying … there’s no room in the sport for this behavior.
