After struggling to score runs consistently for more than a week, the Arizona Diamondbacks got a much-needed boost from their offense against the Atlanta Braves.Getting runs off Braves starter Tim Hudson, however, could prove more difficult. Hudson will try to continue his impressive month by adding to his dominance over the visiting Diamondbacks on Sunday. An inconsistent offense is one of the reasons why Arizona is last in the NL West, and the Diamondbacks were mired in another funk during their seven-game losing streak, scoring 20 runs while batting .204. They ended that skid Saturday night with an 11-1 victory, getting seven extra-base hits among their 13 total. Justin Upton, who started the scoring with a first-inning solo homer, finished a double shy of the cycle, and Stephen Drew and Kelly Johnson also went deep during a five-run ninth.After batting .217 over the team’s first 30 games, Upton is 11 for 29 in the past seven and has a pair of three-hit performances in this series.

Johnson’s 11th homer, meanwhile, pushed him into a tie for the NL lead with the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Andre Ethier. He’ll next face his former teammate Hudson for the first time Sunday. Given his performance over the past three starts, seeing Hudson might not be a welcome sight for Johnson. After starting 1-1 with a 3.28 ERA, the right-hander has won two of his last three outings while posting a 1.83 ERA. He overcame a career high-tying six walks to earn his latest victory Tuesday night in Milwaukee, allowing one run over six innings. Hudson has experienced few difficulties in his career against the Diamondbacks, whom he hasn’t faced since 2007. He’s 4-0 with a 1.61 ERA in six career starts versus Arizona. The Diamondbacks, meanwhile, will counter with Dan Haren, who will try to bounce back from his first loss in six starts.
