Atlanta -- Cody Ross drove in the go-ahead run Monday and the San Francisco Giants won their National League Division Series with a 3-2 victory over Atlanta.

Ross drove in two runs and scored on -- and his seventh-inning single drove in Buster Posey to cap a two-run rally that saw the Giants erase a 2-1 deficit and go on to defeat the Braves, taking the series 3-games-to-1 and advancing to the NL Championship Series for the first time since 2002.

Ross socked a solo homer in the sixth inning off Braves starter Derek Lowe (0-2) to forge a 1-1 tie.

Posey had two hits and an RBI to back Madison Bumgarner (1-0), who held NL wild-card winner Atlanta to two runs on six hits over six frames. Bumgarner walked one and struck out five.
