Strasburg (1-0) allowed six hits and three walks to the Braves on Wednesday, but limited the damage to a single run while striking out four in a 3-1 victory.
Despite not quite being at his sharpest, Strasburg got out of trouble pretty much every time he got into it, making Atlanta leave a small village on base. Fortunately for him and the rest of the NL East, this wasn't exactly a high degree-of-difficulty outing -- the Braves are shaping up to be the whipping boys of the division. Strasburg's scheduled to draw them again Tuesday, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him improve on this outing.
