Game # 81 – June 24 – Petco Park

The Padres tool a 2-0 lead in the 1st inning. The Knights got a run back in the 2nd on Mike Gerber's RBI single. Luis Campusano led off the bottom of the inning with a solo home run to left to make it a 3-1 game. Eric Hosmer's 2-run home run to right in the bottom of the 4th extended San Diego's lead.

Brandon Drury singled home a run in the 5th to make it 5-2. A Fernando Tatis error allowed another run to score. The Knights had the bases loaded, but Anthony Santander struck out and Andy Ibanez flew out to RF to end the scoring threat.

Hosmer blasted his 2nd home run of the game, a solo shot off of Sam Hentges with 2 outs in the bottom of the 6th, to make it 6-3.

Matt Wallner and Vidal Brujan both left the game with injuries, which may necessitate a roster move (depending on how serious the injuries are) as the Knights are now down to 2 healthy outfielders.

Final Score: San Diego 6, Charlotte 3
WP: R. Stripling (2-1)
LP: M. Clevinger (4-6)
SV: R. Weathers (1)
Record: 42-39
Player of the Game: Eric Hosmer

TRADE: The Knights traded Mike Clevinger, Cole Tucker, and minor league OF Kennedy Corona to Portland, receiving C Austin Nola in return.

TRANSACTION: The Knights designated C Aramis Garcia for assignment, added Nola to the active roster, and recalled Glenn Otto from AAA to take Clevinger's spot in the rotation.
