CHICAGO — San Diego shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. left the Padres’ game Tuesday vs. the Cubs in Chicago with right oblique tightness, according to the team.
The Padres included that the move was made for “precautionary reasons” after he went 0-3 on the night.
Tatis entered play Tuesday with a .299 average to go along with 16 home runs and 37 RBIs. He exited after hitting a fly to left in the sixth inning. He was replaced at shortstop by Ha-Seong Kim in the bottom half.
