Rodriguez (quadricep) went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, two RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Padres.

After he was out of the lineup for the Mariners' previous game Sunday while he managed a quad injury, Rodriguez took back his spot in center field for the series opener in San Diego. He began his night with an RBI single in the first inning and later padded the Mariners' lead with a towering blast to left that landed in the second deck. Rodriguez doubled in the seventh for his fourth hit of the night before he was eventually replaced in the eighth inning as a precautionary move with the team up big. Rodriguez still maintains a disappointing slash line of .256/.354/.658 for the season, but he's been hot to begin July with a 1.229 OPS.
