Whichever team wins Sunday’s finale between the Atlanta Braves and San Francisco Giants will capture the season series, but the clubs may have more important meetings ahead. The potential postseason foes are set to complete a tight four-game set at Turner Field, with San Francisco’s Jonathan Sanchez and Atlanta’s Derek Lowe looking to continue the trend of strong starting pitching. Neither team has scored more than three runs in any of the first three games in Atlanta, with the clubs trading 3-2 victories before the Braves won 3-0 on Saturday night. Atlanta extended its NL East lead to two games over Philadelphia, improving its team ERA to 1.55 in seven August games. In this series, Braves starters have allowed three runs and 13 hits in 21 innings.

If the season ended Saturday, Atlanta would face San Francisco in an NL division series. While trailing San Diego by one game in the NL West, the Giants remain 1 1/2 games ahead of St. Louis and Philadelphia in the wild-card chase. San Francisco’s pitching, which ranks second in the majors with a 3.39 ERA, has kept the team in this series, but the Giants’ bats have been slumping. Hudson and Billy Wagner limited San Francisco to three hits Saturday, and the Giants have totaled six runs - with no homers - while losing three of four. The home run drought matches the club’s longest of the season. That may bode well for Lowe as the Giants face a second straight sinkerballer. Both Hudson and Lowe rank among the top five in the majors in ground ball-to-fly ball ratio.
