SF Giants bats light up to prevent sweep at hands of Atlanta Braves
SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco Giants have already lost seven series in a row. So a sweep-preventing 8-5 win on Sunday afternoon over the Atlanta Braves, arguably the National League’s best team, lessened the sting of the Giants’ recent woes.
J.D. Davis’ RBI single in the first inning and Casey Schmitt’s solo home run — his third career and first in 204 at-bats — gave the Giants an early 2-0 lead. Making his first career start, Tristan Beck not only held that lead, but didn’t allow a Braves base runner through his first four innings. That inning, they got Ronald Acuña out on a dribbler with a spectacular relay from Davis to Alexander to a sprinting second baseman Thairo Estrada, then Estrada rifled the ball home to get Arcia out at home by an inch — he was called safe initially, then called out on the Giant’s challenge to keep the Braves lead to 3-2.
Bailey came up with the big hit, hitting a 2-2 sweeper hard enough past first baseman Olson and into right field to clear the bases and give the Giants a 6-3 lead.
