The San Diego Padres envision prosperity by stars Juan Soto and Fernando Tatis Jr. hitting prodigious home runs.
Both stars connected in a big way Friday night, and the Padres are hoping for more of the same Saturday afternoon in the second game of a three-game set against the host New York Yankees.
Soto hit a two-run homer halfway up the second deck in right field in the fifth inning after fouling a ball off his knee earlier in the at-bat. Soto has three of his 10 homers in the past six games and heads into Saturday hitting .356 with six homers and 15 RBIs in his past 25 contests. "It's just about us capitalizing when we get pitches over the plate, not trying to expand too much," New York slugger Aaron Judge said. "Stay in our zones, stay in our lanes, and when we do that we're a good offense."
Wacha is facing an American League opponent for the fourth straight time. He followed up starts against Minnesota and Kansas by allowing five hits in six innings of a 7-0 win over the visiting Boston Red Sox on Sunday. He threw 88 pitches.

The Padres can look to the 1998 Yankees as a reminder of how baseball superteams are — and are not — builtThe last time the San Diego Padres reached the World Series, it was 1998, and they had the misfortune of running into the history-making, 114-win New York Yankees. That series resulted in a triumphant sweep for the Yankees, and the Padres franchise soon tipped into a dormant period that lasted until A.J. Preller, the San Diego president of baseball operations emboldened by ownership, started gobbling up star players a few years ago.
