Hawkins Finds His Groove Again | San Diego Padres News

Garrett Hawkins bounced back with a sparkling save in Double-A, tossing 1.2 innings, allowing just one hit and no runs, dropping his ERA to 5.79 after a rough start in Triple-A. Once a top-12 prospect with a stellar 1.50 ERA last year, Hawkins’ resilience shines as he resets his season—sometimes a step down is exactly what you need. The San Antonio Missions celebrated the win with a team effort: Luis Verdugo homered and drove in three, Ryan Jackson scored three and stole a base, and Braedon Karpathios added two hits and two walks. San Antonio’s record: 39-47. Elsewhere, Fort Wayne fell 4-2, Lake Elsinore crushed it 8-2, and the rookie ACL Padres won 15-7. DSL squads battled tight games, both Brown and Gold squads falling by one run. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
