Robinson Cano’s fresh start off turned out extra like a rotten continuation.
Producing his debut Sunday for the San Diego Padres, Cano went -for-5 with 4 runners still left on foundation and couldn’t help save teammate Will Myers from a throwing error that plated a run for the Braves. The Padres nevertheless defeat Atlanta, 7-3, in 11 innings.
The Mets slice Cano previously this thirty day period despite owing him almost $45 million. After returning from his period-very long suspension for a 2nd failed PEDs examination in 2021, Cano strike nicely in spring education and on Opening Day, but items went south from there as he owned a .195 batting regular with a home operate and a few RBIs in 43 plate appearances at the time of his departure.
The 39-year-outdated previous Yankees slugger joined the Padres this weekend to be a left-handed bat off the bench. He was not made use of in the Friday or Saturday online games ahead of finding a begin at next base and hitting eighth in the lineup.
Cano built the first out on a grounder with a runner in scoring placement to start off the 10th and the 2nd out – after the Padres struck for four operates – on a fly ball to the warning observe with a runner on initial foundation in the 11th.
The Braves took a 1- direct in the 2nd inning when Adam Duvall singled into correct industry.
Myers’ lackadaisical toss again to the infield couldn’t be corralled by Cano, who hurried immediately after the ball as it rolled away. Cano’s throw to the plate was not in time to get Dansby Swanson, who at first stopped at third base ahead of observing the option to rating.
A forgettable debut other than the win.
