ATLANTA -- Julio Teheran was cruising toward his finest start of the season before Austin Slater drilled an eighth-inning, three-run homer that rewarded Matt Moore's strong effort and allowed the Giants to snap a seven-game losing streak with a 6-3 win over the Braves Tuesday night at SunTrust Park.
Slater jumped on a first-pitch fastball that found too much of the plate and lined an opposite-field shot that sneaked over right field's tall wall. Teheran had allowed just three hits before the Braves committed three errors during a five-run eighth inning that accounted for the first runs San Francisco tallied through the first two games of this series.
