Braves bid for series sweep of reeling Giants

The Atlanta Braves will seek a second straight series sweep on Sunday afternoon when they conclude their three-game set against visiting San Francisco Giants.

Atlanta had its streak of shutouts snapped at three on Saturday after San Francisco's LaMonte Wade Jr. hit a home run to lead off the game. Although the Giants struck first, the Braves provided the final shot in a 6-5 win on Eddie Rosario's two-run homer in the eighth inning.

The victory marked the Braves' fifth straight and eighth in the last nine games.
