A head contusion sustained on a ball off his face mask knocked Luis Campusano out a week at high Single-A Lake Elsinore. His second concussion ended his first full season at low Single-A Fort Wayne late last July.
That’s about all that’s slowed the 20-year-old catcher as a pro.
Campusano has hits in 13 of his first 16 games in the California League, including six multi-hit efforts to boost his batting line to .367/.435/.517. He has one homer, six doubles and eight walks against 12 strikeouts through Friday.
“He’s a good young hitter,” Padres General Manager A.
