Fernando Tatis Jr. Closes Seoul Series On High Note
1 month agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. went 2-for-4 with an RBI, two runs scored, and a walk in Thursday's 15-11 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, closing the two-game Seoul Series on a high note after going 0-for-4 in Wednesday's 5-2 defeat. Tatis drove one in on a fielding error by Max Muncy during the third inning, bringing Jackson Merrill around to plate a run and give the Friars an early 8-2 lead. Following Juan Soto's offseason departure, San Diego is certainly going to lean more on the dynamic Tatis as the engine of their offense in 2024. Across 27 at-bats in spring training, the 25-year-old All-Star hit .259 with a .767 OPS, one home run, five RBI, and one stolen base and will look to pick up steam in March 28's home opener versus the division-rival San Francisco Giants. In 13 games against the Giants last season, he slashed .276/.300/.517 with three homers, five doubles, five RBI, and 10 runs scored.
