Tatis will start in right field and bat cleanup in Wednesday's contest versus the Nationals.

Padres manager Mike Shildt is switching up his batting order, as Tatis will hit in somewhere other than the leadoff spot for the first time all season. Luis Arraez will move atop the lineup Wednesday and will be followed by Manny Machado and Jackson Merrill.
