Giants Rip Atlanta, 11-1
The Tampa Bay Giants met little resistance from the Atlanta Braves, beating them, 11-1, at Turner Field. Robinson Cano led the way. He went 4-5 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2 for Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay starter Tanner Roark was credited with the win after throwing 105 pitches over 6.2 innings. His record now stands at 5-4. Tampa Bay has now won 3 in a row.

Tampa Bay used a clutch at-bat from Salvador Gonzalez to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Giants ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"You start putting runs on the board and winning, everyone's going to get excited," said Gonzalez.
