Braves pitcher Julio Teheran ended his string of three starts without a win Friday, as he took down the Phillies 4-2.
Teheran pitched seven full innings for the fifth time in six starts, as he limited the Phillies to two runs -- one earned. He allowed six hits and did not walk a batter, while striking out nine in the win.
Teheran has 19 strikeouts over his last two outings, and now ranks sixth in the National League with 103 strikeouts in 119 innings. He lowered his ERA to 2.34 (fifth in the NL) and improved his record to 7-5 with the win, with his next start set for Wednesday against the Mets.
