The Atlanta Braves and host San Francisco Giants are looking for the comfort of a merry-go-round when they continue their series on Saturday night, one day after a heart-pounding roller-coaster ride in their opener.

The clubs combined to use 38 players in the Giants' 6-5 win in 11 innings Friday in a battle of division leaders. The game was decided after pitcher Kevin Gausman delivered his first career sacrifice fly to end a back-and-forth game that featured five homers -- including two big ones in the ninth inning.

Gausman was batting because Giants manager Gabe Kapler had exhausted all of his position players on the bench. Braves manager Brian Snitker intentionally walked Donovan Solano to load the bases with one out, knowing the pitcher's spot was up next and San Francisco was out of hitters.
