The Padres believed in Luis Urias when they believed he was better off rehabbing his swing and approach most of the summer at Triple-A El Paso. They believed in him throughout a slow start upon last month’s return to the majors. They believe this is just the start for their 22-year-old second baseman.
Urias continued his resurgence with the go-ahead runs on a fourth-inning double, rookie Cal Quantrill fought back from a troublesome start and the Padres avoided a sweep to close the homestand with a 7-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday afternoon at Petco Park.
