Fernando Tatís Jr. is on a tear as he gets ready to make his return to the Padres lineup.
On Thursday night, the San Diego star hit three home runs and drove in eight runs in the Triple A El Paso Chihuahuas’ 19–6 drubbing of the Albuquerque Isotopes. Tatís, who finished a triple shy of the cycle, has been lethal at the dish, recording at least one hit in six of his seven games and posting a .478 batting average.

We’ve all wondered which athletes would translate better in a different sport. A popular swap that gets discussed comes between NFL and NBA players: two groups of ultra-physical athletes that could seemingly swap jobs any given day (or Sunday).
Can NFL Guys Play In NBA?
Well, Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George is throwing cold water on the idea that NFL players could easily translate to the NBA.

Thursday night marked the final time Jonathan Toews would play for the Blackhawks after the team announced before the game that they will not be re-signing him to a new contract in the offseason.
Toews has played his entire 15-year career in Chicago, helping the team win three Stanley Cup titles in that span.
Needless to say, Thursday night was going to be an emotional one for Toews and Blackhawks fans when he took the ice at the United Center for the final time.
Before time expired on Thursday, Toews made sure to end his Blackhawks career in fashion.
Javier Báez did not finish Thursday’s game against the Blue Jays after the Tigers shortstop was benched following a lackluster performance on his first at-bat.

Báez stepped to the plate looking to get off to a strong start after leadoff hitter Spencer Torkelson struck out.
Ten months under Russian detainment can be harrowing, which is why WNBA star Brittney Griner is vowing to bring back Americans still captured in Russia after her drawn-out stay in the foreign country last year.

Social media had a feast with the Twins scoring nine runs in the first inning of a game against the Yankees on Thursday night.
