SAN DIEGO (AP) — San Diego right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr. missed his second straight game with an illness on Tuesday night while the playoff-bound Padres activated shortstop Xander Bogaerts from the 10-day injured list.
Tatis is still suffering from nausea, fever and chills, manager Mike Shildt said before the Padres played the three-time NL Central champion Milwaukee Brewers in the middle game of a three-game series.
Tatis missed that clinched the Padres’ fourth playoff berth in six seasons. Manny Machado included Tatis in the clubhouse celebration via FaceTime on his phone.
