Braves pitcher Julio Teheran struggled in a loss Tuesday, giving up five earned runs on 11 hits and two walks in just 3 1/3 innings while striking out two in his team's 8-3 defeat against the Mets.
Teheran (8-6) turned in his shortest outing since also going 3 1/3 innings on May 14, ending a streak of four straight quality starts with Tuesday's hit barrage. He fell behind after just one batter, serving up a leadoff home run to Curtis Granderson in the first inning. Teheran owns a 2.57 ERA and 110:28 K:BB ratio in 129 1/3 innings. He's scheduled to face the Cubs Sunday.
