The San Diego Padres says a coaching coordinator in their minor league system is back with his family after being detained by federal immigration officers in Texas. The team said Tuesday that Oswaldo Pirela had been released on bond. Pirela was detained by immigration enforcement at the El Paso International Airport during a work trip for the team on Aug. 16. The Department of Homeland Security has previously said that Pirela came to the U.S. legally in 2014 and “overstayed his welcome” after 2018. DHS did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment.
