Amarista provided half of the Padres hits on Friday against Josh Collmenter and the Diamondbacks, as he went 2-for-3 with one run scored. It looks like the Padres hitters took the night off in this one, although Amarista did his part getting on base while scoring on a Miguel Montero pass ball in the ninth inning. Amarista has been hovering around the .230 mark for most of the season, so don't expect a sudden uptick in hitting stats anytime soon.
