Fernando Tatís Jr.

The Padres’ all-star shortstop, nicknamed El Niño, is famous for many things including his baseball glasses. When he’s not hitting home runs or double-jumping to catch a ball, Tatís Jr. is spotted wearing the big shield-type sunglasses first popularized in cycling that are now making their way onto the baseball diamond.

These sunglasses are from the San Diego-based brand 100%, and Tatís Jr. switches between the S2, S3, and Speedcraft on the field. And in 100%’s first collaboration, last year, they released the S3 and Speedcraft in the Tatís signature colors of white and gold. The custom-painted sunglasses were such a hit they sold out almost instantly, but at SportRx we offer all of them in other colorways.

Matt Beaty

A first baseman and outfielder recently transferred from the Dodgers, Matt Beaty is the Rx representation we needed on the Padres. His sunglasses of choice are the Oakley Flak Draft, a discontinued model similar to the Oakley Flak 2.0 XL.

Beaty wears his baseball glasses in prescription with Oakley authentic lenses, in the PRIZM™ Field (formerly PRIZM™ Baseball) tint optimized for the baseball diamond. With lenses designed to make the ball easier to spot, you’ll be seeing better than ever.
