MacKenzie Gore

Three of the Padres top four prospects had memorable nights Tuesday in the Padres’ system.

— Left-handed starting pitcher MacKenzie Gore, allowed one run on six hits and no walks with five strikeouts over six innings for Single-A Fort Wayne. Gore, 19, ranked the Padres’ №2 prospect by MLB Pipeline (and №11 among all minor leaguers), was the Padres first-round pick (third overall) in the 2017 draft. With the win he is 2–5 with a 4.11 earned run average.

— Catcher Francisco Mejía, the Padres’ №3 prospect (№21 throughout the minors) was 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored with Triple-A El Paso, where he is off to a .306 start.

— Second baseman Luis Urías, ranked the Padres’ №4 prospect (and №23 throughout the minor leagues) was 3-for-4 with El Paso with two doubles, a walk and two runs scored — raising his batting average to .275.

There were two other notable outings by Padres minor league pitchers:

— Right-hander Lake Bachar, 23, allowed five hits and three walks with four strikeouts over six innings for Double-A San Antonio. With the win, he improved to 3–6 and lowered his ERA to 5.40.

— Right-hander Henry Henry, 19, who started for the Northwest League All-Star team last week, allowed a run on five hits and no walks with four strikeouts over six innings to lower his ERA with Short-Season Single-A Tri-City to 3.29.

Other leading performances from Top-30 prospects:

— Infielder Esteury Ruiz, 19, the Padres’ №17 prospect, was 3-for-4 with a RBI and a stolen base with Fort Wayne, raising his batting average to .251.

— Third baseman Hudson Potts, 19, the Padres’ №23 prospect, was 2-for-5 with a homer for San Antonio, where he is hitting .214 since being promoted.

— Shortstop Owen Miller, №30 on the Padres’ prospect list, was 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored for Fort Wayne, where he is off to a .379 start.
