Teheran (0-4) pitched well enough to win, allowing just two runs (one earned) on four hits over seven innings but lost against to the Royals 5-1 on Friday.
The right-hander hasn't allowed more than one run in four straight outings, yet he is still searching for his first victory. The Royals scored an unearned run in the first and then added an earned run in the next frame, and that was all they needed. Atlanta is scoring an average of two runs per game with Teheran on the hill, which is the third-lowest run support for a starter in the league. Hopefully he can get some more run support in his next start Wednesday against the Pirates.
