Gattis, Simmons hit HRs as Braves top Dodgers 3-1

ATLANTA (AP) Evan Gattis and Andrelton Simmons hit consecutive homers off Kenley Jansen in the eighth inning, and the Atlanta Braves rallied to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-1 on Saturday night.

Kris Medlen, Cory Gearrin, and Craig Kimbrel combined on a two-hitter for Atlanta.

Chris Capuano led 1-0 before he allowed a one-out single to B.J. Upton in the eighth. Dodgers manager Don Mattingly brought in Jansen (1-2), the hard-throwing right-hander, to face Gattis, a rookie pinch-hitter.
