Tatis Roars, Buehler Rises for Padres | San Diego Padres News

Fernando Tatis Jr. is on fire, crushing two homers in the Padres’ dominant 8-1 win over the Twins—and now leads MLB with 12 bombs since the All-Star break. The offense exploded in the sixth against the Twins’ bullpen, with Tatis delivering a clutch single that set the tone. Walker Buehler bounced back from surgery with his third straight quality start, throwing more innings this year than since 2021. Jackson Merrill added a solo shot in the seventh, giving the Padres insurance and helping rest key relievers. Both Tatis and Buehler are hitting their stride as the season heats up.
