Turner, a late addition to Sunday's lineup, will bat leadoff in the series finale against the Pirates, Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports.
Turner was originally scheduled to get the day off Sunday, but after fellow infielder Anthony Rendon was scratched due to flu-like symptoms, he was inserted into the order. Furthermore, rather than just add him to the bottom, manager Dusty Baker will use him atop the order, a place he's been used twice since getting called up. So far this season, the 23-year-old has collected four hits in 11 at-bats.
