Quentin hit his first home run of spring training Tuesday and also saw time at first base for the first time in his career. The rumors of Quentin spending time at first this spring have now become a reality as the Padres' crowded outfield situation and Quentin's injury history have limited his chances of seeing time in the outfield. Manager Bud Black is encouraged by Quentin's performance this spring, saying, "We're happy that he's healthy, he's going through ballgames. That's the first time it's happened in three springs that he's been here," in a Union-Tribune report. Quentin's role with the team moving forward remains uncertain, but he is off to a good start in his new gig at first.
