The San Diego Padres just finished going 3-3 in its first homestand of the regular season. They’re now headed to Atlanta for an off day before starting a four game set against the Braves. Meanwhile, one of their superstars, Fernando Tatis Jr., is in Sacramento getting closer and closer to his major league return.
Tatis has joined the El Paso Chihuahuas and got his first action tonight, going 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored. The 24-year-old is expected to be with the Padres Triple-A affiliate for 15 days before rejoining the major league club in Arizona.
