The San Diego Padres weren’t in action tonight but Fernando Tatis Jr. was for Triple-A El Paso against the San Francisco Giants Triple-A affiliate, the Sacramento River Cats. A day after driving in a run in his first Triple-A game of his career, the 24-year-old homered to left field.

Tatis struck out swinging in his first at-bat before taking a walk in his next plate appearance. The home run would come in the fifth inning against Kade McClure.
