Maddux gets the start as the San Diego Padres face the AtlantaBraves in the finale of a three-game series Sunday.

The 41-year-old Maddux (7-5, 3.96 ERA), who spent 11 seasons ina Braves uniform from 1993-2003, will look to give the Padres anedge in this rubber game of a three-game series.

Maddux, who is 8-4 with a 4.12 ERA in his career againstAtlanta, did not receive a decision against the Braves on May 9,when he yielded one run and three hits over 5 1/3 innings.

The righthander was tagged for six runs and 10 hits in his laststart, a 7-5 loss to the Florida Marlins on Tuesday.

The Braves will counter with Kyle Davies (3-7, 5.85), who iswinless in his last five starts. The 23-year-old righthanderhas posted an 0-4 record with a 7.85 ERA in that span.
