Fernando Tatis Jr. Back in Tuesday's Lineup
Fernando Tatis Jr. (hamstring) is back in right field and will hit in his customary leadoff spot for Tuesday's ballgame at Petco Park against the visiting Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Tyler Wells, who is making his first start of the year. Tatis dealt with hamstring tightness in the series finale against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday but stayed in the game before being scratched from the lineup for Monday's series opener against the O's as a precaution. The 26-year-old All-Star is back in there on Tuesday, though, and will look to get going at the plate in the final month of the season. The Dominican outfielder's power has been down of late and is hitting .231/.348/.385 with five RBI and seven runs scored in his last 10 games. Tatis only hit one homer while driving in 13 and stealing five bases in 27 games in August.
