The San Diego Padres lost to the Athletics, 10-4, on Tuesday night. Unfortunately, Fernando Tatis Jr. was forced to exit the game early due to an injury.

Tatis wasn't the only All-Star to exit the game due to injury as Jake Cronenworth also suffered an injury while swinging his bat on a ground out. Newly recalled Oscar Gonzalez replaced Cronenworth in the lineup.

The reason Gonzalez was called up was due to another injury to a Padres All-Star as Jackson Merrill's injury required a trip to the injured list. The move to hold the 21-year-old out of Monday's game was initially precautionary due to hamstring tightness he experienced last week against the Chicago Cubs, but now the injury requires some more rest.
