Yonder Alonso went 2-for-3 with a homer Saturday in the Padres' 2-1 win over the Padres.

It was his first homer since May 3 and his fifth overall. In 2012, he didn't hit his first bomb until May 11 and his second until June 13, finishing with nine. He'll easily pass that number this year.

Yonder Alonso scored the winning run on a Marco Scutaro error as the Padres beat the Giants 8-7 in 12 innings Saturday.

Alonso doubled for the third time to reach base in the 12th. He came around to score when Scutaro failed to handle Nick Hundley's grounder. The three doubles matches Alonso's season total for his previous 79 at-bats. He went eight straight games without collecting an extra-base hit or scoring a run before coming through tonight.

Yonder Alonso made appearances at second base and third base in the ninth inning of Wednesday's game.

That wacky Bud Black had Mark Kotsay pinch-hit for Alexi Amarista tonight even though the rest of his bench was used up. As a result, Alonso moved to second base, then slid to third with a left-hander up and then moved back to second. He had an attempt while at second base, coming up short on a diving stab. Anyway, if this gives him some extra eligibility in your league, he's now a whole lot more valuable.

Yonder Alonso clubbed a solo homer in Monday's loss to the Mets.

It was his only hit in four at-bats. Alonso only had nine home runs last season, including one in 169 plate appearances against left-handed pitching, but he already has one in 2013 after taking Jon Niese deep. Now that the dimensions are a little friendlier at PETCO Park, there's reason to believe we'll see some power progression in 2013.

Yonder Alonso is getting a scheduled day off Wednesday.

Alonso was hit on the knuckles by a pitch on Tuesday, but he already feels much better. It shouldn't be an issue moving forward.

Yonder Alonso went 2-for-4 with a home run in Sunday's win over the Brewers.

It was his fifth home run in the last nine games. While Alonso is hitting just .236/.263/.509 this spring, the Padres are expected to put him in the middle of their lineup until Chase Headley (thumb) or Yasmani Grandal return. Alonso should be on your radar in deeper mixed fantasy leagues.
