ATLANTA -- Petco Park will play host to a pair of prospect exhibition games this October, in which the top youngsters in the Padres' organization will take on the best prospects of the Texas Rangers.
The games are slated for Oct. 6 and 7, with the latter contest open to the public. It will be free for season-ticket holders or a $5 donation to the Padres Foundation for other fans.
Padres managing partner Peter Seidler made the announcement in an interview with the Mighty 1090 AM, saying the Padres would bring "A couple dozen of our top prospects" to the event, including shortstop Luis Urias, who just took home Class A Advanced California League MVP Award, and right-hander Cal Quantrill, the club's No.
