Say what you ant three closely contested ball games of Senior Circuit Division Leaders goes to the San Francisco Giants. They go into HOTlanta and beat up the NL East Division leading Braves behind Tim Lincecum (Friday's Winner), Ryan Vogelsong (Saturday's Winner), and Sunday's "Get Away Day" Winner Madison Bumgarner.

The Giants struck in the 1st Inning as Hunter Pence scored on a fielders Choice off the Ash, Maple, or Bamboo of Buster Posey to make it 1-0 Gigantes. Braves Starter Alex Wood went five innings giving up just two runs on seven hits walking one and striking out seven giving up a Solo HR. That Solo Bomb was off the Lumber of Giants Shortstop Brandon Crawford in the 4th to make it 2-1 Giants. The Braves scored in the bottom of the 3rd on a Jason Heyward Sac Fly.

That same man for the Gigantes Brandon Crawford struck in the top half of the 8th for a Two-Run Bomb off Braves Middle Man Jordan Walden to cap the scoring at 4-1.  Bumgarner was magnificent for the Giants going six allowing just one run on three hits and a walk and nine strikeouts. The Giants move to 20-11 and that is good for two games lead on the 2nd place Rockies and 2.5 game lad on the 3rd place Dodgers in the NL West. The Braves fall to 17-13 which is a 1/2 game up on the NL East rival Nats of Washington.
