The San Diego Padres won a decisive matchup against the Athletics, 2-1, to improve to 10-3 on the year, becoming the first team in MLB to hit double-digit wins in 2025.

Unfortunately, they did so without the talents of Fernando Tatis Jr. in the lineup. The superstar provided a huge update on when fans can expect him back after he tweaked his surgically-repaired shoulder during Tuesday evening's game.

The Friars were also without All-Star Jake Cronenworth. He, too, spoke on when fans can see him back after an apparent injury while taking a swing on Tuesday that caused him to head to the clubhouse early.

Manager Mike Shildt seems confident that the two All-Stars will return at the end of the week.

“We’re optimistic for Friday,” he said. “But again, we’ve got some time between now and then to evaluate it.”
