SAN DIEGO (AP) — The Padres have optioned infielder Jace Peterson to Triple A El Paso to make room on the roster for Irving Falu.

Falu, an infielder, was claimed Thursday on waivers from the Brewers. He was hitless in 10 at-bats in 11 games for Milwaukee.

Peterson played in 23 games for the Padres, hitting .100 in 50 at-bats.

San Diego announced the move Saturday before its game against Arizona.
