The Braves halted their three-game losing skid on Tuesday night with a 5-1 win over the Giants, narrowing the deficit in the NL East to just half a game in the standings.

The sloppy west coast defense continued in the first inning as Eddie Rosario misplayed (or lost in the lights?) a soft fly ball to left field, which got past him for a double. Old friend Joc Pederson then singled through the right side to give San Francisco an early 1-0 lead.

Atlanta tied it up in the second as Michael Harris II continued his absurd rookie campaign with a double and came around to score. He was moved up to third base in the inning on an Eddie Rosario single, which improved Eddie to 9-for-9 in his last nine atlanta braves swanson jersey Oracle Park at bats.

The Braves’ bats woke up in the third. Ronald Acuña singled and Dansby Swanson homered over the left field wall to take a 3-1 lead.
