Brian Snitker shook up the top of the lineup, after the Braves failed to score after Ronald Acuña’s leadoff homer Friday night. Rookie sensation Drake Baldwin steps into the second spot, behind Ronald. Matt Olson swaps with Marcell Ozuna, dropping to the cleanup spot, while a struggling Austin Riley drops from second to fifth. Alex Verdugo remains in left field, batting sixth, while the back of the lineup stays constant.
Jake Cronenworth steps into the Padres lineup, facing the righty in Holmes, as opposed to the dominant lefty, in Sale. Otherwise, the Padres’ lineup stays the same as yesterday.
