MLB News: Giants end 6-game losing streak with shutout of Braves

Casey Schmitt and Wilmer Flores homered as the visiting San Francisco Giants ended their six-game losing streak with a 9-0 win over the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday.

Schmitt hit a solo homer, his fifth, as part of a four-run rally in the second inning. Flores delivered a three-run shot, his 12th of the year and first since June 7, in the seventh to put the game away and help the Giants even the three-game series. The Giants are 4-1 against the Braves this season.

The victory was the 1,650th for San Francisco manager Bob Melvin, which moves him into a tie with Mike Scioscia for 20th in major league history.

Giants starter Landen Roupp (7-6) threw five scoreless innings and allowed four hits and one walk while striking out six. Over his past six starts, Roupp is 3-1 with a 1.15 ERA and 32 strikeouts in 31 1/3 innings. It was his second victory over the Braves this season.

San Francisco relievers Sean Hjelle and Joey Lucchesi each pitched a frame and Carson Seymour threw the final two innings, striking out three in the ninth to complete the Giants’ fifth shutout of the year.

Atlanta’s Davis Daniel (0-1) pitched five innings and permitted five runs on seven hits with four walks and three strikeouts. It was his second start and third appearance for the Braves.

The Giants scored four times in the second to take command. Willy Adames walked — one of his three for the game — and scored on Matt Chapman’s triple that the yellow line on the center field fence and bounced away from Michael Harris II. Melvin contended the ball left the park, but a video review confirmed the call on the field.

It didn’t really matter. Flores followed with a sacrifice fly and Schmitt hit a 416-foot solo homer into the second deck of the left field seats. The Giants then loaded the bases and Heliot Ramos hit a sacrifice fly to center field.

Adames added a run-scoring single in the fifth inning, giving him 17 RBIs in July.

In the seventh, Rafael Devers hit an RBI single and Flores belted his three-run shot.

Devers played the full game at first base, his first appearance at the position in 1,083 regular-season games. His refusal to play first base for the Boston Red Sox earlier this year helped prompt his trade to the Giants.
