(Sports Network) - The recently-slumping Atlanta Braves can build a small win streak tonight, when they host the Toronto Blue Jays in the opener of a three- game interleague series at Turner Field. NBA Jerseys Black Friday 2014 . Atlanta had dropped five of six games and two in a row heading into Sunday, when Jason Heyward drove in a pair of runs and Freddie Freeman finished 3- for-4 to help the Braves avoid a three-game sweep with a 4-2 win over the Texas Rangers. Freeman also knocked in a run, while speedy leadoff man Jordan Schafer scored twice for the Braves, who have not been swept in a series of at least three games this season. Atlanta starter Jair Jurrjens (9-3) collected his ninth win after throwing 5 1/3 innings. He allowed just one run on seven hits and two walks while striking out four. On Sunday in Cincinnati, Miguel Cairo blasted a go-ahead two-run homer in the sixth inning to lead the Reds over the Toronto Blue Jays, 2-1. Carlos Villanueva (4-1) worked seven innings in defeat, giving up two runs on seven hits while striking out three. Aaron Hill smacked a home run for Toronto, which had won four of its previous five games. Veteran right-hander Tim Hudson takes the mound for Atlanta for his 16th career start against the Blue Jays. Hes 10-3 with a 3.00 earned run average in 105 previous innings in the matchup, allowing 88 hits and 39 runs with 67 strikeouts. He lasted just four innings in his most recent start on June 15, giving up four hits and three runs in a 4-0 loss to the New York Mets. His last win was a start earlier on June 10 in Houston, where he scattered seven hits and gave up two runs in six innings of an 11-4 triumph. For Toronto, lefty Ricky Romero comes back from a career-best 12-strikeout effort in his last start. On June 15 against Baltimore, Romero allowed three hits and a run in eight innings of a 4-1 defeat of the Orioles. It ended a two-start skid in which he had lost to Baltimore and Kansas City and fell to 5-6 on the season. He has never faced the Braves.

The Canucks, who have won three straight, enter tonight trailing idle Minnesota by just one point for the division lead. Vancouver has put pressure on the Wild over the past month, compiling a 12-2-1 record over its last 15 games. Vancouvers two most recent wins have come at the start of a four-game homestand and those victories have improved the Canucks record as the host to 10-4-1 this season. The Canucks last played on Wednesday, when they recorded a 4-2 decision over the Detroit Red Wings. Roberto Luongo made 38 saves to secure the win and improved his record to 7-0-1 over his last eight starts in net. "[The Red Wings] always make for some exciting games," said Luongo. "They are fun to play in. They shoot a lot. Thats the way I like it." Chris Higgins, Cody Hodgson, Alexandre Burrows and Alexander Edler lit the lamp, while Jannik Hansen added a pair of assists for the Canucks, who have won six of their last seven games at home. Vancouver has played the last two games without defenseman Keith Ballard and he is questionable for tonight with back spasms. The Cannucks have dominated the recent series with the Flames, winning five straight and posting a 10-0-2 mark in the last 12 encounters.

Vancouver has beaten Calgary twice this season, winning both tilts by identical 5-1 scores. The Flames have lost two straight and five of their last six games in British Columbia. Calgary has won its last two games after a four-game losing streak. The Flames beat visiting Minnesota on Tuesday by a 2-1 score and then notched another home win last night in a 3-2 decision against Detroit. Miikka Kiprusoff stopped 29 shots on Thursday to help Calgary hold off the Red Wings at the Saddledome. Curtis Glencross had two goals while Blake Comeau scored the other for the Flames. "The last couple of minutes was kind of hectic, but well take the result," said Comeau. "Thats a great team over there and you cant make any mistakes against them. This is a big win for us." Tonight marks the start of a season-long seven-game road trip for the Flames, who have lost five straight as the guest and are 6-10-2 away from Calgary this season. Flames forward Rene Bourque will be eligible to return tonight after sitting out the last two games with a suspension. Bourque, who has 11 goals this season, was given the ban for an illegal hit on Chicagos Brent Seabrook. ' ' '
