SAN DIEGO (AP) — Fernando Tatis Jr. went 5 for 5 with two RBIs in the first five-hit game of his career, and Xander Bogaerts' sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth inning gave the San Diego Padres an 8-7 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night.
Tatis became the first major leaguer with five singles in a game this season and the first Padres player to do it since Adrián González on Aug. 11, 2009.
Manny Machado had three hits for the Padres, including an eighth-inning single that was misplayed by right fielder Jake McCarthy for an error — allowing Jake Cronenworth to score the tying run.
San Diego loaded the bases against Jimmy Herget (0-4) with ***** ody out in the ninth on Jackson Merrill's leadoff single and two walks. Merrill scored on Bogaerts' fly to center field.
Mason Miller (3-1) struck out all three batters in the top of the ninth to keep it tied at 7.
