Braves pitcher Julio Teheran turned in a strong start Thursday against the Reds.
Teheran allowed four hits over six scoreless innings. He struck out three and did not issue any walks during the outing. Teheran was perfect over the first two innings, but hit the leadoff man and gave up a single in the third. Despite those issues, he was able to get through the inning unscathed. The only other time the Reds threatened with Teheran on the mound was in the sixth inning, when Brandon Phillips reached second with a double. Teheran was able to work around the hit. He threw 87 pitches during the outing.
With the win, Teheran improved to 12-9. He’ll take on the Mets in his next start.
