SAN DIEGO -- The San Diego Padres traded All-Star outfielder Rondell White to the Kansas City Royals for two minor league pitchers Tuesday.
The trade came shortly after the Padres acquired outfielder Brian Giles, who grew up in the San Diego area, from the Pittsburgh Pirates for left-hander Oliver Perez, minor league outfielder Jason Bay and a player to be named.
The Padres acquired lefty Chris Tierney and right-hander Brian Sanches from Kansas City in the deal for White.
White goes from a team that's been in last place since April to a team that's just one game behind the Chicago White Sox in the AL Central race.
White was obtained from the New York Yankees in a spring training deal for outfielder Bubba Trammell and minor league left-hander Mark Phillips.
