All-Star Fernando Tatis Jr. scored the tying run in the third inning and doubled in the go-ahead run in the fourth for the San Diego Padres, who beat the Texas Rangers 4-1 to take two of three.

The Padres get Yu Darvish back on Monday night. Their All-Star starting pitcher was shut down in Spring Training with an elbow issue and will make his long-awaited 2025 debut against the Diamondbacks.

Yu Darvish is ready to make his season debut on the mound for the Padres after returning from an elbow injury.

Acee writes that Darvish tossed two simulated games in the last 12 days and hit the 64-pitch mark in his most recent outing. This seems to have checked the final box for Darvish to be activated, and he’ll jump right into the deep end in a big NL West matchup.

The five-time All-Star went from presumed Opening Day starter to being at risk of missing the entire first half of the season with lingering elbow inflammation, but manager Mike Shildt announced that Darvish will take the mound to start a four-game set against the Snakes.
