The San Francisco Giants secured a 7-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves in a makeup game held at Truist Park. Rafael Devers initiated the scoring with a home run in the first inning, followed by a back-and-forth contest that saw the Braves hold leads at various points behind home runs from Michael Harris II and RBI production from Matt Olson and Drake Baldwin. The Giants pulled away with a four-run surge that shifted the momentum late in the game. Starting pitcher Bryce Elder allowed five runs on eight hits across 5.1 innings, contributing to his current 4.11 ERA. This loss concludes a seven-game winning streak for the Braves as the team prepares for an upcoming road series in Washington. The result leaves the club looking to regain the form shown over the previous week of play.
