Padres recall swingman JP Sears from Triple-A

White did ground into a double play and was caught stealing after one of his singles, so it wasn’t a perfect night. Still, four hits in your third big-league game is impressive. The 23-year-old is 5-for-11 overall, and he’s yet to strike out. He’ll definitely be in the lineup Tuesday with the A’s facing a left-hander for a third straight game.

Springs pitched five scoreless frames before giving up a double and a game-tying Ketel Marte homer to start the sixth. He was then pulled after a Geraldo Perdomo bunt single. Fortunately, that runner was stranded, and Springs was charged with two runs or fewer for the first time in 10 starts since May 17. He’s still lost nine straight decisions since mid-April, however. He’ll likely make his next start Sunday in Minnesota.

Harris allowed a single and a walk in the frame, but he struck out the other three batters he faced. It’s his first save since June 12. He’d taken two blown saves since, though neither was a ninth-inning opportunity. The A’s as a team had recorded just one save over the last five weeks, that being picked up by Mason Barnett on June 25. Barnett, though, is back in Triple-A now. Harris and Elvis Alvarado are probably the co-favorites for saves on the roster.

Bratt gave up eight hits, but only the solo homers from Joshua Kuroda-Grauer and Jacob Wilson mattered. He’s now made three starts for Arizona and allowed six runs in 10 2/3 innings. He’ll probably start again this weekend against the Nationals before having his rotation status revisited.

Arenado is the sixth active major leaguer and 299th player all-time to reach 2,000 hits. He’s a bit higher on the career list with his 424 doubles. He moved out of a tie with Willie Stargell and Victor Martínez in that category tonight and is now tied with Chili Davis and Raul Ibañez for 155th place.

Never before has a player hit his first major league homer and been so miserable after the game. Kuroda-Grauer was hurt when he fouled a pitch off himself in the fifth, though he did stay in for another inning. Alika Williams will probably be needed to fill in for him Tuesday.

Thomas is day-to-day. The D-backs are throwing another lefty on Tuesday, so Thomas would be in line to start. However, if he can’t go, Lawrence Butler will probably play right field.

The game should have ended two batters earlier, as Vaughn Grissom crushed a ball off the wall in right against Riley O’Brien with the tying run on second and the winning run on first. Though it bounced at least 40 feet away from Jordan Walker afterwards, pinch-runner Jose Siri was unable to score from first. O’Brien then intentionally walked Josh Lowe to set up the double play, only to throw four straight balls to Adell. The last plunked him on the elbow, though it would have ended the game either way. The struggling Adell, who was hitless in his previous six games, had already had a great night by that point. His 103.6-mph homer was actually his third hardest-hit ball of the game. He has 14 homers in 100 games this year.

Although he was hit fairly hard — nine of the 17 balls in play against him topped 101 mph — Soriano struck out seven in his longest and probably best outing since May 10 against the Blue Jays. Since that game, he’d had a 5.24 ERA and a 54/33 K/BB in 56 2/3 innings over 11 outings. Soriano will likely make his next start Sunday against the Giants. There’s a chance that could be his last with the Angels, though Reid Detmers remains the better bet to be traded.

Jo Adell homered in the third for the only run of Leahy. The right-hander allowed just two other hits, walked none and struck out four. He’s given up a total of two runs over 25 1/3 innings in his last five starts, one of which was halted by rain after three innings. There are obvious concerns about his workload going forward, as this is his first year back in the rotation after three seasons in the pen, but he’s cruising at the moment. He’ll face the Reds this weekend.
