Gavin Sheets Hits Walk-Off, 3-Run Home Run for Padres to Beat Rockies

Belts first homer of season Campusano went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, a double and a walk in Friday's 5-2 win over the Rockies.

Impact Campusano continues to deliver with the bat, as he's hit safely in his last five games and has a homer and four doubles in that span. The long ball Friday was his first of the season. He started the year firmly in a bench role behind Freddy Fermin, but Campusano's hot hitting could help him secure more playing time. The catcher is batting .353 (6-for-17) through seven contests while adding four RBI and three runs scored.

Expected to make 26-man roster Campusano is likely to open the regular season as San Diego's No. 2 catcher, per MLB.com.

Impact Campusano has mostly struggled with the big-league club in parts of previous campaigns, and he went a miserable 0-for-21 with a 6:11 BB:K over 10 games last year. However, he also posted a 1.024 OPS with 24 home runs and 92 RBI across 466 plate appearances with Triple-A El Paso, so he has nothing left to prove in the minors. Elias Diaz and Martin Maldonado are no longer with San Diego this season, and the Padres seem content to have Campusano back up primary catcher Freddy Fermin despite Campusano's struggles this spring, as he slashing just .172/.250/.241 with no RBI through 13 games.

Promoted, in lineup Sunday The Padres recalled Campusano from Triple-A El Paso, and he's batting seventh as the designated hitter Sunday against the Phillies.

Impact Campusano was sent to El Paso in mid-June but is back with the big club, and in the starting nine, for the final game of the first half. The 26-year-old has appeared in nine games with San Diego this season and has gone 0-for-18 with six walks and nine strikeouts. It may be a short stay in the majors for Campusano, since the corresponding transaction for his promotion was Gavin Sheets being placed on the paternity list.
