Tucupita Marcano launches first career home run in Monday's win

by Andy Zimmerman | Padres Correspondent | Tue, May 31st 8:02am EDT

Tucupita Marcano went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a strikeout during Monday's 6-5 win over the Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact:

Marcano sent a ball over the right-center wall for his first MLB homer and to give the Pirates an early three-run advantage. Recalled by Pittsburgh this past weekend, the 22-year-old has collected five hits in 14 at-bats this season. Initially an infielder, Marcano's time in Double-A Altoona has helped gain comfortability in left field, where he played Monday night.
