Braves 12, Padres 5: Michael Tucker drove in three runs on two doubles and a triple and scored twice as visiting Atlanta beat San Diego for the sixth straight time.
Tucker was 3 for 5 with a walk, Jeff Blauser was 3 for 5 with two RBIs, and Kenny Lofton went 2 for 4, drove in two runs and scored twice for the Braves, who had 16 hits. They had only 14 hits in a three-game series last weekend as they lost twice to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Padres will activate MVP Ken Caminiti from the disabled list Tuesday. He had a strained right hamstring.
