Closer Kenley Jansen pitched a perfect ninth inning to earn his first save with the Braves.

He is now batting .389 on the season and has driven in six runs, while first baseman Eric Hosmer is hitting at a .400 clip. Starting pitcher Nick Martinez was excellent in his first start of the year, allowing just one run across 5.0 innings at San Francisco.
