Braun went 1-for-1 with three walks and a two-run homer in Friday's 4-2 win over the Giants.

After Braun socked his 15th home run of the season in the bottom of the first inning, Derek Holland and the Giants bullpen wanted nothing more to do with him. The veteran slugger's power is waning -- Friday's blast was his first since Aug. 14 -- but he's still got a strong .294/.359/.496 slash line in 36 games since the All-Star break.
