Braves pitcher Julio Teheran went six strong inning Saturday, allowing three runs (one earned) on two hits in Atlanta's 5-3 win over the Mets.
Teheran added five strikeouts and four walks in to his totals. He made it through the first six innings without allowing a runner past second base. Then in the seventh, Teheran walked two straight batters, followed by a fielder's choice and a throwing error to make it 5-3.
Teheran also survived a line-drive comebacker from Lucas Duda, which scared him a bit, reports MLB.com.
"I felt a little pinch in my knee, but after that I didn't feel anything," Teheran said. "It was just in my mind a little bit and I was a little scared. But other than that, I felt good. I was trying to make pitches to get out of that inning. The guys in the bullpen got my back again."
Teheran will look to keep rolling Friday against the Blue Jays.
