Dustin Harris slots in left field and seventh against a righty. On the mound, Casey Mize battles through recent ankle issues, while Jason Adam inches closer to returning from shoulder rehab. Jeremiah Estrada remains sidelined, and Ramón Laureano continues his rehab in Arizona. Facing Nationals’ Riley Cornelio — a new name for the Padres — San Diego looks to keep pace in a tight race.
