Garcia shuts out Giants, gets key hit in Braves' 2-0 win

SAN FRANCISCO — Jaime Garcia pitched 6 2/3 innings and drove in the first run of the game with an RBI single in the seventh inning to lead the Atlanta Braves to a 2-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Friday night.

Garcia (2-3) did just about everything to get the Braves off to a good start on their nine-game trip. He allowed four hits and two walks to earn his fourth straight win against the Giants and delivered in the biggest at-bat of the game in the seventh inning against Matt Cain (3-3).

With a runner on second and two outs in the seventh, San Francisco opted to intentionally walk No.
