Rengifo’s Season Ends with Injury | San Diego Padres News

Luis Rengifo’s season is over after a torn ACL and sprained MCL in his right knee, confirmed by MRI — he’ll undergo surgery and miss the rest of the year. A surprise spark plug for the Padres since joining in July, Rengifo hit .291 with power and versatility, even playing left field. Released by the Brewers, he saw the Padres as a second chance and thrived, delivering clutch hits including a go-ahead homer and grand slam. Teammates and manager Craig Stammen praised his impact, though saddened by his injury. With a typical recovery of 9-12 months, Stammen believes Rengifo’s grit might get him back sooner — while the Padres scramble to fill his void amid other injuries.
