May 19 (UPI) -- San Diego Padres star shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. bashed a solo home run in his return to the lineup Wednesday following an eight-game absence after testing positive for COVID-19 last week.
Tatis had a single in his first at-bat before blasting a 415-foot homer off Colorado Rockies pitcher Chi Chi Gonzalez in the bottom of the fourth inning to give the Padres a 1-0 lead.
