Worth noting

• Black said Thursday that infielder Ronny Cedeno is "getting better, but still a little fuzzy," after being hit in the helmet with a pitch on Monday. The veteran hasn't played since.

• Named the 2013 Pacific Coast League Executive of the Year earlier this week, Triple-A Tucson general manager Mike Feder threw out the first pitch at the Padres game on Thursday at Petco Park. Feder is ending his 30-year career as a Minor League GM after this year, as the Padres' Triple-A affiliate will be located in El Paso in 2014.
