Joc Pederson's bases-loaded walk in 9th lifts Giants to 4-3 win over Braves

ATLANTA (AP) — Pinch-hitter Joc Pederson's bases-loaded walk in the ninth inning forced in Michael Conforto and the San Francisco Giants beat the Atlanta Braves 4-3 on Sunday.

Luis Matos and Wilmer Flores hit home runs for the Giants, who took advantage of Kirby Yates' control problems in the ninth to win for just the second time in 14 road games. The Braves had a seven-game home winning streak snapped.

Camilo Doval (5-3) picked up the win and was part of a bullpen effort that pitched the final 7 1/3 innings after starter Jakob Junis left in the second inning.
