Padres manager Mike Shildt said Paplham “seemed awake” as he was trying to shake the terrifying incident.
“Our prayers are with him,” Shildt said, via mlb.com. “He was aware, he seemed awake, he knew where he was. But obviously a scary thing … He was obviously in some pain, and obviously when something like that happened, he crumpled a little.”
Paplham has been in the smaller Padres league system since 2023. Played a collegial ball at the University of New Orleans and then participated in MLB Draft League For Mahoning Valley Scrappers.
