The Padres signed Jose Iglesias precisely for a day like this one. The veteran infielder played only three innings on Sunday afternoon. But did he ever make those three innings count?

Jose Iglesias tied the game with two-run, two-out, bases-loaded pinch-hit single in the seventh inning and then drove in the winning run with a grounder in the ninth for the San Diego Padres, who beat the Kansas City Royals 3-2 to take two of three.
