Gary Matthews drove in a pair of runs with a double and triple and Dale Murphy drilled a two-run double to power the Braves to a 6-3 decision over the Giants. Consecutive two-baggers by Matthews and Murphy in the third inning gave the Braves a 3-1 lead. Matthews chased Chris Chambliss home with a fifth-inning triple and then scored on a fielder's choice.
