When Hunter Renfroe homered Wednesday night against the Giants at Petco Park, the Padres became the only Major League team with two players with 25 homers this season.

Renfroe joined opposite corner outfielder Franmil Reyes, who hit his 25th homer on Tuesday night.

Also, Renfroe and Reyes are now tied for the second-most homers by a Padre before the All-Star Game break. Greg Vaughn had 30 homers before the break in 1998.

The Padres now have 133 home runs on the season. The franchise record for a full season is 189 homers hit during the 2017 season. Only 21 times during their first 50 seasons did Padres’ hitters total more than 133 homers in an entire season.

Eighty of the Padres’ 133 homers have been solo shots. Forty have been two-run homers, 10 have come with two runners on and three have been grand slams. Sixty-six have been hit at Petco Park and 67 have been hit on the road.

Speaking of homers, the Padres’ Triple-A El Paso affiliate has hit 182 homers in 85 games this season – already topping the Chihuahuas’ previous record for a full season of 179 set over 142 games in 2017. Triple-A is using Major League baseballs this season.

Notebook

• RHP Luis Perdomo gave up four runs to the Giants in the sixth inning Tuesday night – marking the 21st time this season that the Padres bullpen had given up four runs in a game. Ironically, Perdomo had worked 13 straight scoreless innings before the Giants’ game-winning rally.

• Rookie SS Fernando Tatis Jr. hit his fourth homer in the last eight games Wednesday night. Tatis Jr. has hit safely in eight of his last nine games, going 13-for-36 with a double, a triple, the four homers with eight RBIs, 13 runs scored, six walks and four stolen bases for a .361/.465/.778/1.243 slash line.

• RF Franmil Reyes is 8-for-20 during a five-game hitting streak with three solo homers.

• 1B Eric Hosmer was 0-for-12 with six strikeouts in the series against the Giants. This is only the second time this season that Hosmer has gone three straight games without a hit.

• 2B Greg Garcia is 6-for-12 in a four-game hitting streak that has boosted his batting average from .260 to .277.
