Luis Arraez Collects Four Hits In Padres Debut 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun May 5, 2024 5:30 am

Luis Arraez had four hits and an RBI in his first game after being traded from the Miami Marlins, Ha-Seong Kim hit a three-run homer in San Diego\'s eight-run seventh inning and the Padres routed the Arizona Diamondbacks 13-1 on Saturday.

The Padres made a massive deal Friday, acquiring Arraez from the Marlins along with nearly $7.9 million in a trade for four players. The two-time batting champion didn\'t join his new team until about 3:30 p.m. Saturday, but wasted no time in producing, going 4 for 6 while scoring two runs.

\"Clearly an amazing approach and I can see why he is the rightful moniker of \'The Sprinkler,\'\" Padres manager Micke Shildt said.
