What's new: Cameron Maybin matched his season-high in home runs (nine) and made it memorable, with a walk-off solo shot to lift the Braves to a 2-1 victory in the 10th inning Sunday over Arizona to clinch the series. He'll take a hot bat into San Diego against his former team. Maybin has four straight two-hit games and a five-game hitting streak, while batting 9-for-21 (.429) with two doubles, a triple, a home run and three RBIs. The Braves head back out on the road where they are 21-40 (.344) this year, compared to 32-24 (.571) at home. The 40 road losses are tied for the second-most in the majors with Miami and three behind Philadelphia's 43. The Braves have won 13 of their past 21 home games but lost 15 of their past 17 road games.
