Season series: Braves lead 3-1
Atlanta dropped the final 2 games of a 3-game set at the Seattle Mariners over the weekend after racking up an 8-game winning streak. They’re 8-2, 14-6 and 23-7 over their last 10, 20 and 30 games, respectively. Atlanta is just 1 1/2 games back of the New York Mets in the NL East.
The Giants are going a different way. They won the final 2 games of their 3-game weekend series against the Chicago Cubs, but they are just 13-17 over the last 30 games. You can virtually forget about October for San Francisco as it sits 9 1/2 games out of the final NL wild-card spot.
