Atlanta extended its winning streak to six games and improved its home mark for the season to a league-best 13-4.
Tim Hudson (5-2) scattered six hits over seven innings to get the win. He was coming off a three-hit shutout against Cincinnati. Manny Acosta recorded the final two outs to pick up his third save of the season.
Randy Wolf (2-2) took the loss, allowing all five runs on eight hits with four walks over six-plus innings.
The game was tied at 2-2 going into the Atlanta seventh, which Brian McCann opened with a double. Matt Diaz singled McCann to third and Mark Kotsay walked to load the bases.
Norton, pinch-hitting for Hudson, singled in McCann and Kelly Johnson brought in Diaz with a sacrifice fly. Yunel Escobar's single drove home the third run of the inning.
