RHP Nick Vincent gave up a three-run home run to Evan Longoria, losing a three-run lead in the sixth inning. He gave up a single to Rays No. 9 hitter Curt Casali to start the trouble, then walked Brad Miller to bring Longoria to the plate as the tying run. Even with the three spot, his season ERA is 3.18.

RHP Nick Vincent, who blew a save opportunity on Wednesday night, got off to another rough start out of the bullpen Friday. The first batter he faced, Angels star Mike Trout, popped up to right but ended up getting a run-scoring double because the ball fell in front of diving RF Seth Smith. That left runners on second and third, and Vincent struck out DH Albert Pujols to protect the Mariners' 5-3 lead.

RHP Nick Vincent got his second chance at a save this season, but he blew it on Wednesday afternoon. With closer Steve Cishek taking the day off to rest an arm that had worked back-to-back games, Vincent came served up the score-tying homer to Tampa Bay's Kevin Kiermaier.

RHP Nick Vincent earned his first save of the season and the second of his major league career Sunday. Vincent pitched 1 2/3 perfect innings with two strikeouts in Seattle's 9-4 win over the Angels. Vincent's save was his first since 2013, when he pitched for the Padres.

Vincent was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.

Vincent will return to San Diego for his fourth major league stint of the season. Last up with the Padres in June, Vincent went 0-1 with a 3.55 ERA and 14 strikeouts in 12 appearances (12.2 innings).

Vincent was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

Vincent will return to Triple-A after two weeks with the big league club. During this most recent MLB stint, Vincent appeared in five games, allowing just four hits and no earned runs over 5.1 innings. Kevin Quackenbush will come up from El Paso to fill his spot on the roster.

Vincent was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

Vincent will return to the Padres for the third time this season, filling the roster spot of Jedd Gyorko, who was optioned to El Paso on Wednesday. Vincent, who was last up with the Padres at the start of May, has allowed five earned runs on 13 hits (6.14 ERA) in 7.1 innings for the Padres this season. He's fared much better at Triple-A, where he holds a 3.32 EAR over 21.2 innings.

Vincent will be optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Friday.

With the Padres activating Shawn Kelley off the disabled list Friday, they have decided to option Vincent to their Triple-A affiliate in a corresponding move. Vincent allowed two earned runs in one inning of work Thursday to raise his ERA to 6.14 on the season.

Vincent was recalled by the Padres on Friday, MLB.com's Corey Brock reports.

He got off to a bit of a rough start and was sent to Triple-A earlier in the season, but his velocity is where it was last year so there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with him. If Vincent's numbers from 2014 (2.77 FIP and 62 strikeouts in 55 innings) are any indication, he should be able to settle in as a key member of the Padres' bullpen over the rest of the season.

Vincent was optioned to the minor leagues Friday, the Union-Tribune's Dennis Lin reports.

Vincent has pitched in three games already this season, so he was likely unavailable Friday and Saturday anyway. He had a 2.77 FIP and a 28.8 percent K-rate in 2014 and should be back up with the Padres in the near future.

Vincent is yet to allow a run over his 5.2 innings of work this spring. He has struck out eight batters and walked two and carries a 1.24 WHIP.

Vincent figures to be one of the main right-handed specialists in the Padres' bullpen corps with Joaquin Benoit and Kevin Quackenbush slated to be the closer and set-up men. He has a solid K:BB ratio, but is a bit prone to home runs as a flyball pitcher.

Vincent nabbed his first win of the season Monday versus the Rockies, tossing two perfect innings with three strikeouts.

Vincent also induced two groundouts versus one flyout, which is a welcome change from his 0.63 GB/FB rate on the season. Since his activation from the DL on July 18, he has yet to give up a run on five hits and two walks to go with 10 strikeouts in 9.1 innings. His previous struggles seem to have been alleviated, but the occasional hold is likely the sole output that owners can expect as the stretch run plays out.

Padres activated RHP Nick Vincent from the 15-day disabled list.

Vincent has been sidelined since mid-June due to shoulder fatigue. He takes the place of Huston Street on the active roster.

Nick Vincent (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Saturday.

Padres placed RHP Nick Vincent on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 12, with right shoulder fatigue.

It's not clear at this point how long he'll be sidelined. Vincent holds a 5.67 ERA but a nice 32/6 K/BB ratio over 27 relief innings this season. Blaine Boyer has replaced him in the bullpen.
