Renfroe's go-ahead slam in 9th stuns Brewers

MILWAUKEE -- Playing time was scarce for Hunter Renfroe early this season, but he played every day on the Padres' seven-game trip through Chicago and Milwaukee. Boy, did he make the most of that opportunity.

Renfroe capped a torrid week with his biggest swing yet -- a go-ahead grand slam in the ninth inning on Thursday afternoon as the Padres rallied for an 8-4 victory over the Brewers at Miller Park. He demolished a 1-2 fastball from Joakim Soria into the second deck in left field. Then he flipped his bat emphatically in celebration.
