Atlanta Braves (28-24) at Milwaukee Brewers (25-27), 8:05 p.m.

(Sports Network) - Atlanta right-hander Jorge Campillo can continue an improbable streak of success today when the Braves visit Miller Park for the final game of a three-game series with the host Milwaukee Brewers.

Campillo, who'd made one start in eight big-league appearances prior to 2008, came out of the bullpen for his first 13 outings of this season and allowed three runs in 21 1/3 innings.

He got a starting assignment on May 20 against the New York Mets and responded well, allowing three hits in six scoreless innings of a 6-2 Atlanta win.

His subsequent outing resulted in a no-decision but prolonged the success, as he tossed four innings of scoreless, two-hit ball in the Braves' 3-1 win over Arizona.

Campillo has been unscored upon in five appearances since May 8, when he allowed a run and two hits in 1 1/3 innings of relief at Pittsburgh.

He has never faced the Brewers.

Milwaukee counters with right-hander Seth McClung, who picked a win on May 24 in his first start since 2006.

A reliever through his initial 11 appearances of 2008, McClung got the start and tossed five innings at Washington, allowing four hits and two runs in the Brewers' 5-2 win.

The last time the 6-foot-6, 252-pounder had started a game was with Tampa Bay in 2006, when he was 6-12 with a 6.29 earned run average in 39 appearances - 15 starts.

He pitched exclusively out of the bullpen in 14 appearances with Milwaukee last season, going 0-1 with a 3.75 ERA in 12 innings.

On Wednesday, Jeff Suppan tossed eight scoreless innings and Rickie Weeks tripled in the winning run in the eighth, lifting the Brewers over the Braves, 1-0.

Suppan (3-4) allowed only four hits in his longest outing of the season. He walked five, but struck out a season-high seven batters, including Mark Teixeira and Brian McCann to close out the eighth.

It was his first win against the Braves in five career decisions, as the Brewers posted their third straight victory.

Weeks had two hits and J.J. Hardy scored the winning run, walked twice and made a diving catch to spear pinch-hitter Greg Norton's line drive to end the game.

Atlanta starter Jo-Jo Reyes (2-3) tossed seven-plus strong innings in taking the hard-luck loss. He struck out a career-high nine batters allowing only two hits and three walks.

Chipper Jones singled and walked twice for the Braves to keep his major league- leading average at .418.

Atlanta won five of its seven meetings with the Brewers a year ago.
