Guess that Alex solo HR was all Hudson, Venters and Kimbrel needed. Hudson 7 IP of 3 hit ball. Braves win 1-0, sweep D'backs, Kimbrel picks up save # 39.

Good sweep, some long balls and good pitching got it done, good sign. On to the Cubs who are playing really well nowadays.

On a day when the bats were not so hot, just one long ball by Alex was the difference. Terrific pitching and stellar defense wins the game.

Yes sir, Freddie Freeman's amazing defensive play, throw to Mac, and then Mac's amazing sliding tag got Kelly Johnson (who led off the inning with a triple) out at home. That was the difference
