Baseball Atlanta 6 San Diego 0

Tim Hudson tamed the Padres over 6 1/3 scoreless innings Tuesday and the Atlanta Braves snapped a two-game skid with a 6-0 whitewash of San Diego. Hudson (12-4) ran his unbeaten streak to eight starts, holding the Padres to just two hits while walking one and striking out four. The right-hander improved to 5-0 in his last five outings against San Diego as the Braves evened their four-game series at one win apiece.
