Estrada in total control as Blue Jays add to division lead

ATLANTA - It was akin to the immovable object smacking into the irresistible force.

On the one hand you had Marco Estrada, a right-hander who has been known to concede home runs in bunches. Last season he served up a major-league high of 29 while twirling for the Milwaukee Brewers.

This year as a Blue Jay, Estrada has been taken deep 21 times, including 10 over his past six starts.

On the other hand you have the Atlanta Braves, who hit home runs as often as there are Bigfoot sightings on Bay Street. This season the Braves have clubbed all of 88 homers, the lowest total in the bigs.
