Nady goes back to back two years apart

CLEVELAND -- There was something altogether peculiar about Xavier Nady's home run during the ninth inning of the Padres' 8-6 loss to the Indians on Tuesday.

That hit was not just his first of the season, but his first Major League hit since Sept. 30, 2012, when he was with the Giants.

That hit just so happened to be a home run against current teammate and Padres' closer Huston Street.

According to Elias, Nady is the first Major League player to have two consecutive hits as a home run with the second coming for the team his last home run came against since 2005, when Mark Bellhorn accomplished the feat while with the Red Sox and Yankees that season.

Get all that?

The last Padres player to do it was Jay Payton, who hit a home run against the Padres while playing for the Rockies in September 2003 only to hit a home run in his first game for the Padres in April of 2004.

The home run on Wednesday was Nady's first with the Padres since Aug. 20, 2005. That was Nady's last season of his first tour with the Padres. That particular home run was a grand slam in the 13th inning of a 7-2 victory over the Braves in Atlanta.
