The Padres are overloaded with right-handed-hitting, corner-infield types in the majors.<\/p>\n
Jos\u00e9 Miranda is still doing what he can to remain top of mind.<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old former Twin hit his second homer during a three-hit game, leading Triple-A El Paso to a 5-2 wi<\/a>n on Sunday in the completion of a suspended game.<\/p>\n Miranda also doubled and was hit by a pitch while driving in three runs. He is hitting .288\/.308\/.480 in 12 games to start the season. He competed deep in camp for the bench jobs that went to Nick Castellanos and Ty France.<\/p>\n Center fielder Jase Bowen (1.003 OPS) hit his fifth homer.<\/p>\n Right-hander Sean Boyle (2-1, 4.86 ERA) threw five shutout innings in relief for the win after right-hander Triston McKenzie (11.57 ERA) allowed a run in two innings in the start.<\/p>\n Left-hander Yuki Matsui (3.00 ERA) allowed a run on two hits while striking out two in continuing his rehab assignment. Matsui has a 7-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio but a 1.50 WHIP across six rehab appearances as he builds up following a groin strain sustained in spring training.<\/p>\n El Paso dropped a 4-1<\/a> decision in seven innings in the second game of the doubleheader at Round Rock.<\/p>\n Right-hander Alek Jacob (1.13 ERA) walked three and allowed a run in two-thirds of an inning as the final arm out of the bullpen.<\/p>\n Bowen went 1-for-3 with a double.<\/p>\n Shortstop Sung-Mun Song (.664 OPS) went 2-for-3.<\/p>\n El Paso is 8-13.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Sunday\u2019s scoreboard<\/p>\n DOUBLE-A SAN ANTONIO (4-11)<\/p>\n Midland 7, Missions 0:<\/a> LHP Jagger Haynes (0-1, 7.36 ERA) struck out one and allowed four runs on six hits and two walks in 4\u2153 innings in the loss. 1B Leandro Cedeno (.862 OPS) went 2-for-4. LF Kai Murphy (.608 OPS) and RF Braedon Karpathios (.439 OPS) both had a double.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n HIGH SINGLE-A FORT WAYNE (6-9)<\/p>\n
