Atlanta has a 2-7-3 series record against San Francisco since 2012, its worst against any NL opponent during that span. The Braves defeated the Giants in Atlanta, 12-11, in the most recent game (June 22, 2017), a contest that featured seven home runs (Atl -- 4, SF -- 3).

The Braves won their last five games of their 10-game road trip in order to finish it out at 7-3. Atlanta hit 17 home runs during the stretch, nearly matching its total prior to the trip (20 in 20 games).

The Giants went 7-3 in their 10-game homestand, averaging 5.10 runs per game during the stretch. However, San Francisco averages just 2.50 runs per game on the road, the fewest in MLB this season.

The Braves are the only team in MLB that have five players with 30+ hits (Albies, Freeman, Inciarte, Markakis, Swanson). Atlanta's 301 hits are tied with Boston for the most in MLB, and its overall batting average of .277 is the best in the majors.

It took Chris Stratton just 1.1 innings to amass six earned runs in his last start (April 28 vs. LAD), his most in a game in his career. This season, Stratton had allowed just eight earned runs in 31.0 innings prior to the outing.

Mike Foltynewicz has allowed two or fewer earned runs in each of his six starts this season, the longest such streak of his career. Foltynewicz is 2-2 in five career starts against the Giants with an ERA of 4.45.

ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Braves are in first place for the first time past April since 2014 and their fans finally get a chance to see one of the reasons why in a home uniform.

ATLANTA (AP)  Braves manager Brian Snitker liked what he saw from Jose Bautista, Atlanta's new third baseman.
Even though the Braves' five-game winning streak was snapped, Snitker watched Bautista double off the wall in his first at-bat and cleanly handle his three chances in the field.
