Atlanta Braves right-hander Yonny Chirinos has a tough act to follow when he takes the mound on Saturday night against the visiting San Francisco Giants.

Well, three tough acts, actually.

Fresh off of three straight shutouts and five in their last eight games, the Braves will turn to Chirinos(5-5, 5.22 ERA) in a bid to extend their winning streak to five contests.

Atlanta followed 5-0 and 2-0 victories over the New York Yankees with a decisive 4-0 romp over the Giants on Friday in the opener of a three-game series.
