All-Star Tatis leads the Padres to a 4-1 win against the Rangers
Tatis, named to the National League All-Star team for the third time, reached base four times.
With runners on first and second and two outs in the fourth, Tatis doubled into the left field corner to bring in Trenton Brooks for a 2-1 lead. Martín Maldonado came around from first, slid headfirst and originally was called safe on Marcus Semien's relay throw to catcher Jonah Heim, but the Rangers challenged and the call was overturned.
The Padres failed to capitalize on a bases-loaded situation with two outs in the bottom of the first against Jack Leiter (4-6). But they tied it two innings later when Tatis reached on a leadoff walk, stole second and scored on Luis Arraez's two-out single to center.
Maldonado and Jake Cronenworth singled in runs in the sixth and seventh, respectively.
Padres rookie opener David Morgan had a rough first inning but allowed the only run thanks to a play at the plate and a great diving catch by Cronenworth with the bases loaded.
Leiter allowed two runs and five hits in 3 2/3 innings, with five strikeouts and two walks.
Kyle Hart (3-2) got the win and Robert Suarez pitched a perfect ninth for his 25th save to tie for the big league lead.
Tatis' RBI double came one pitch after he was brushed back and lost hold of his bat.
Manny Machado, who needs two hits to reach 2,000 for his career, went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts.
Rangers RHP Jacob deGrom (9-2, 2.13 ERA), who was named to the American League All-Star team, is scheduled to start Monday night in the opener of a four-game series at the Los Angeles Angels. Padres RHP Yu Darvish, out with elbow inflammation since spring training, makes his season debut.

2026 4-star WR and Notre Dame commit sends glowing message to Texas A&M's coaching staff
Nothing is shocking in the new age of college football recruiting after the new NIL rules took effect, providing every Power Four program a shot at landing elite prospects, including last week's surprising decision from 2026 five-star offensive tackle Felix Ojo, who committed to Texas Tech over the Texas Longhorns, who were the favorites throughout his recruiting process. Again, as shocking as Ojo's choice was, the monetary benefits the Red Raiders provided were too much to turn down in today's landscape, and no one, outside of some angry Texas fans, is blaming the young man for taking the more lucrative route. On Friday, Texas A&M, Texas, and several blue-blood programs missed out on landing 2026 four-star wide receiver Kaydon Finley, the son of former Green Bay Packers tight end Jermichael Finley, who committed to Notre Dame. Notre Dame had been the favorite for quite some time, but what stood out was Finley's social media post two days after his announcement, thanking the coaching staffs from Texas, Arizona State, and Texas A&M for their support during his recruitment journey. After his official visit to College Station on June 6, Finley recognized coach Mike Elko, OC Collin Klein, and WR coach Holmon Wiggins for their leadership throughout the process. "It was tough stepping into enemy territory, being born in a Longhorn family" Finley stated. "But Coach Elko, Coach Klein and Coach Wiggins did everything they could to make me feel welcome. Coach Wiggins is serious when it comes to film breakdown and player development. One of the best I've seen. Through his recruitment, I've learned just how special a place A&M truly is." This is just another example of a wide receiver prospect heaping praise on Holmon Wiggins, who will enter his second season coaching the Aggie wideouts. This group should improve with the influx of talent this offseason. During his 2024 junior season, Finley hauled in 81 receptions for 1,432 yards and 21 touchdowns at Aledo HS (TX).
