Braves starting pitcher Julio Teheran (9-5) stayed sharp as he picked up his ninth win of the season Tuesday night against the Nationals in Washington. The right-hander yielded one run on four hits and two walks while striking out four over six innings pitched in a 2-1 victory.

Teheran has allowed one earned run or fewer in seven of his last 10 starts. He has not lost a decision since July 14. He is scheduled to make his next start Monday at home against Philadelphia. He is 5-2 with a 2.66 ERA in 11 starts at Turner Field this season.
