Fernando Tatis Jr. sure loves being the new villain of Major League Baseball.

The San Diego Padres outfielder missed the entire 2022 season after suffering an injury from a motorcycle fall, but right when he was set to return, he was suspended 80 games for performance-enhancing drugs.

Tatis returned earlier this year, but for the remainder of his career, he will be taunted. That certainly was no different in the Bronx on Friday night.

In the Padres game in New York against the Yankees, the right field Bleacher Creatures hit Tatis with the long taunt of "steroids."

Most players would ignore it and probably hate it - but Fernando Tatis Jr. is not most players.

The star outfielder seemed to love every second of it and acted as a conductor to the jeers.

Oh, and Tatis wasn't done there - he hit a moonshot into the upper deck, gave an epic bat flip, and hit an imaginary jump shot rounding third base in San Diego's 5-1 victory in the Bronx.

This isn't the first time Tatis has entertained the taunts. When Chicago Cubs hit him with a "He's on steroids" chant, he actually danced to it.

Tatis said he "inadvertently" took a medication that contained Clostebol, a banned substance, as he was treating a case of ringworm.
