Combining on a four-hitter, Eddie Solomon and Craig Skok hurled the Braves to a 6-1 triumph over the Giants. Joe Nolan clouted a solo homer for the Braves in the second inning. The Braves added a pair of runs in the third on a walk to Jerry Royster, double by Gary Matthews and single by Rowland Office. A single by Office and homer by Jeff Burroughs produced two more tallies in the sixth stanza.
