LeMahieu will slide back to eighth in the order for Friday's game against the Padres.
LeMahieu batted out of the leadoff spot for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks and answered the bell by going 2-for-4 with a home run and two runs. However, with Charlie Blackmon back in the top spot Friday, LeMahieu will slide back down to the bottom third of the order. He'll be facing San Diego right-hander Colin Rea.
