Tatis Hits 2 HRs, Padres Fall | San Diego Padres News
Description
Fernando Tatis Jr. blasted two homers at Wrigley Field — including a leadoff shot and a record-setting blast that vaulted him into fourth on the Padres’ all-time home run list — while extending his on-base streak to a career-best 23 games, but the Padres fell 9-7 to the Cubs in a wild, nine-homer slugfest fueled by Wrigley’s wind. Tatis, now behind Manny Machado, Nate Colbert, and Adrián González, credited the opportunity to get back on track, as manager Craig Stammen praised his patience and power. Despite Machado and Gavin Sheets rallying with homers, Tatis’s second blast wasn’t enough. JP Sears struggled, giving up seven runs in under five innings, and Stammen emphasized the need for better pitch control in tough conditions. The Padres’ offense is heating up — but pitching must catch up if they’re to win.
