SAN FRANCISCO — Juan Uribe hit a towering two-run drive in the ninth for his first homer since joining Atlanta, Williams Perez shut down San Francisco for his first major league win, and the Braves beat the Giants 8-0 on Saturday night. Andrelton Simmons and Cameron Maybin each hit a pair of RBI singles, while Christian Bethancourt and Freddie Freeman also singled in runs off Tim Lincecum, who was chased after just 4 1/3 innings. Jace Peterson was a home run shy of a natural cycle with his first career three-hit game.
