ATLANTA — Madison Bumgarner allowed two hits in seven innings and combined with Sandy Rosario for a three-hit shutout in the San Francisco Giants' 6-0 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Friday night.
Bumgarner (6-4) was dominant in earning his second straight win. The left-hander did not allow a baserunner for 4 2-3 innings before losing his bid for a perfect game in the fifth and shot at a no-hitter in the sixth.
Bumgarner matched his season high with 10 strikeouts while walking one.
Atlanta's Kris Medlen (3-7) lasted six innings and gave up four runs on nine hits, including a homer by Gregor Blanco to lead off the game. The Giants had five doubles off Medlen.
Buster Posey had three doubles. Blanco had two hits, including a run-scoring single in the second.
Rosario allowed one hit in two scoreless innings. Andrelton Simmons singled with one out in the ninth and moved to second base on Jason Heyward's groundout. Rosario struck out Justin Upton to end the game.
The Braves, who were swept in a three-game series at San Diego to end a 2-5 road trip, have lost four straight.
Bumgarner, pitching one year and one day after teammate Matt Cain's perfect game against Houston, did not allow a baserunner until B.J. Upton walked with two outs in the fifth. Bumgarner then struck out Uggla, who remained at home plate to argue the called third strike with umpire Gary Darling.
