PEORIA, Ariz. \u2014 The Padres beat the Mariners 10-3 in the spring training finale at Peoria Stadium.<\/p>\n
Batter\u2019s box: Sung-Mun Song struck out and walked in his first game since March 5. The utility infielder will begin the season on the injured list with an oblique strain. \u2026 Freddy Fermin singled in his only at-bat and finished the spring 15-for-38 (.395). \u2026 Xander Bogaerts doubled and finished 8-for-28 (.286) in the Cactus League. He was 5-for-15 for the Netherlands in the World Baseball Classic. \u2026 Manny Machado was 0-for-2 Thursday and finished Cactus League play with a .111 average (2-for-18). Machado was 6-for-20 for the Dominican Republic in the WBC. \u2026 Fernando Tatis Jr. was 0-for-1 and was hit by a pitch. He hit .222 (4-for-18) with a .440 on-base percentage in Cactus League play. He was 8-for-20 with two home runs for the D.R. in the WBC. \u2026 Jase Bowen, who was assigned to minor-league camp on Sunday, led the Padres with 16 hits this spring. \u2026 Romeo Sanabria, a first baseman who spent last season in Double-A, hit a grand slam in the eighth inning. It was his third homer of the spring.<\/p>\n
Balls and strikes: Germ\u00e1n M\u00e1rquez, the Padres\u2019 fifth starter, closed out spring by allowing one run over 4\u2154 innings. He threw 81 pitches. \u2026 Kyle Hart pitched the first inning and allowed his first earned run of the spring (14 innings). The left-hander is expected to serve as the Padres\u2019 \u201cbridge\u201d reliever at the start of the season. \u2026 Reliever Jason Adam got through a 1-2-3 inning in nine pitches in his second Cactus League appearance. Adam will begin the season on the injured list out of an abundance of caution as he returns from last season\u2019s quad tendon surgery. \u2026 Bradgley Rodriguez, the hard-throwing young right-hander, allowed just his second run in 10\u2154 innings this spring. Rodriguez, who struck out 13 and walked six in Cactus League play, will likely begin the season on the roster after finishing with the team last year.<\/p>\n
Extra bases: Most of the Padres regulars started and got two plate appearances. \u2026 Ty France, who has started one game at second base over the four seasons and will serve as the Padres\u2019 backup there at the start of the season, mishandled a grounder there. \u2026 The Padres finished the spring 15-15-1.<\/p>\n
On deck: RHP Nick Pivetta will start for the Padres against LHP Tarik Skubal and the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, 1:10 p.m. PT at Petco Park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PEORIA, Ariz. \u2014 The Padres beat the Mariners 10-3 in the spring training finale at Peoria Stadium.
