The San Diego Padres' superstar shortstop absolutely obliterated an offering from Matt Magill for his league-leading 13th homer of the season.
Tatis is now hitting an otherworldly .302/.385/.667 over 32 games.
To put the cherry on top of the 21-year-old's Herculean feat, the Padres wound up coming back from a 7-3 deficit in the seventh inning of Game 2 of the doubleheader, punctuated by Wil Myers' walk-off, three-run homer.
Down 4 ➡️ walk-off winners.#FriarFaithful pic.twitter.com/wVH9NkTXUa
