SAN FRANCISCO — Fredi Gonzalez left the Atlanta Braves for two games following a series-opening victory at San Francisco to attend his daughter's college graduation in Georgia. He returned from the whirlwind, cross-country trek in time for the series finale Sunday to witness yet another lopsided loss against the reigning World Series champion San Francisco Giants. Pablo Sandoval, Marco Scutaro and Brandon Belt each hit solo home runs against Braves starter Kris Medlen, who was outpitched by Tim Lincecum in a 5-1 defeat Sunday.
