Home run in win
Campusano went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Yankees.
Analyse
Campusano took Gerrit Cole deep for a 343-foot long ball to lead off the seventh inning and give the Padres a 4-0 lead. The 27-year-old backstop has started the past four games -- two at catcher, two at designated hitter -- and has gone 4-for-14 with two home runs during that stretch. So long as he continues to swing a hot bat, Campusano should have a fairly clear path to steady playing time.

Walks it off Friday
Campusano went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Yankees.
Analyse
Campusano delivered a walk-off blast in the 10th inning, taking Paul Blackburn deep. After a slight dip in playing time in late August, Campusano is back to getting fairly steady work between catcher and designated hitter, having started three of the last four games, though the Padres have faced three left-handed starters in that span. On the year, Campusano is batting .283 with an .849 OPS, six homers, 25 RBI, 19 runs scored and 11 doubles across 56 contests.
