Two more homers highlight Tatis’ dominant El Paso run

Fernando Tatis Jr.‘s rehab project with Triple-A El Paso couldn’t be going any higher for the two-time Major League Silver Slugger.

Already hitting .478 this season as he entered Saturday night time’s recreation towards Triple-A Albuquerque, the Padres’ 2021 All-Star could not be stopped but once more. Tatis wasted no time to make his mark on his seventh recreation of the yr, clubbing a house run to left discipline in his first at-bat. Then, he stepped as much as the plate within the second inning for his second time up, and blasted one other homer 435 ft to the alternative discipline.

It brings Tatis as much as six residence runs on the yr. It was his second straight multi-homer recreation, as he hit three in his final time on the diamond which included an eight RBI exhibiting.

That wasn’t it, although. Tatis adopted up his two homers by including a pair of singles. The final at-bat drove in a 3rd RBI from Tatis.

Tatis is slated to play for the Padres once more subsequent Thursday (April 20), and there are definitely no questions over whether or not he is prepared or not. Tatis has hit .536 for the Chihuahuas, posting a .618 on-base share. He’s as much as 14 RBIs in seven video games, with 10 runs in span.

He most definitely appears just like the participant he was the final time he performed on the massive league stage, the place he not solely was an All-Star and Silver Slugger choice, but in addition a prime three National League Most Valuable Player candidate.
