Giants score late, beat Braves 8-3

There's nothing worse than facing a bad team with an excellent starting pitcher. You look at the schedule and think, "Oh, well, at least we get to play the Washington Generals three times," and then when the game finally comes, Pedro Martinez in his prime is pitching for them. Cole Hamels did it for years. Jose Fernandez might get to be that guy for years. And while I'm not sure the Braves are one of the worst teams in baseball yet, it's still mighty annoying to see Shelby Miller as one of the probable pitchers when the Giants roll into Atlanta.
