Game Notes
Brandon McCarthy set the bar high his last time out, so the Arizona Diamondbacks should expect nothing less than another strong outing Friday in the opener of a three-game series versus the San Diego Padres at Chase Field.
The Atlanta Braves will take their current six-game winning streak to the road and haven't played so well away from Turner Field. The test begins Friday night in the opener of a three-game series against the New York Mets.
Could the seventh time be the charm?
