Goes deep as pinch hitter Cronenworth slugged a solo home run in his only at-bat during a win over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

Impact Cronenworth entered the contest having collected only two hits over his past 24 at-bats before smashing a 409-foot solo shot to right field in the sixth inning. The long ball was his second of the campaign and accounted for his fifth RBI. The 27-year-old is slashing .260/.345/.396 across 96 plate appearances.

Notches stolen base Saturday Cronenworth went 0-for-2 with a walk, a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base and a run in Saturday's loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Cronenworth walked and crossed the plate on a wild pitch in the seventh inning, bringing the Padres within a run. He was then hit by a pitch in the eighth and got to second base on a double steal with Wil Myers, though both runners were left stranded. The second-year utility player has swiped two bags this season and is tied for the team lead with 12 runs scored.

Slams first home run Cronenworth went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Dodgers.

Impact Cronenworth's first home run of the season came off Trevor Bauer in the fourth inning. Despite batting .313, Cronenworth only has four RBI. He has nine runs scored and six multi-hit games to his name. The 27-year-old should be in for a solid season with the Padres should he continue to bat over .300.

Reaches base four times Cronenworth went 2-for-2 with two RBI, two doubles, two walks and a stolen base in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Pirates.

Impact Thursday was more of the same for the second-year infielder, whose torrid start to 2021 is highlighted by a .358 average, five doubles and a 4:7 K/BB ratio. Following a strong rookie campaign, Cronenworth faced additional pressure to perform with the signing of Ha-Seong Kim, but he'll remain in the San Diego lineup after Fernando Tatis returns as long as he keeps his OBP anywhere close to its current .435 mark. His defensive versatility only helps his chances of staying in the lineup throughout the season amidst his team's impressive infield depth.

Racks up three hits Cronenworth went 3-for-4 with a walk and scored a run in a victory over the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact Cronenworth has already registered two three-hit performances through nine games, and he is slashing a superb .364/.462/.485 in the early going. The 27-year-old has yet to hit a home run or steal a base, but he appears in line for an everyday role at second base this season, and his bat-to-ball skills translate to a high batting-average floor.

Collects three hits Monday Cronenworth went 3-for-5 in Monday's loss to the Giants.

Impact Cronenworth has started each of the Padres' first five games this season, registering a .412/.545/.647 slash line in 22 plate appearances. There was some expectation that he would bounce around some this season with the arrival of Ha-Seong Kim, but Cronenworth has so far looked like San Diego's everyday second baseman. With Fernando Tatis potentially missing substantial time due to a shoulder injury, Kim is likely to fill in at shortstop, further cementing Cronenworth's regular spot in the lineup.

On base four times Opening Day Cronenworth went 2-for-2 with a triple, two walks and three runs scored in Thursday's 8-7 victory over Arizona.

Impact The co-runner-up for the 2020 NL Rookie of the Year award picked up where he left off last season, reaching base in all four of his trips to the plate. He scored the Padres' first run of the campaign after singling in the second inning and capped his day by scoring the game-deciding run following a triple in the seventh. Though he's expected to share time at second base with Ha-seong Kim this season, Cronenworth's versatility should allow him to garner plenty of at-bats, and manager Jayce Tingler may be hard pressed to keep out of the lineup if he continues producing as he did Opening Day.
