Braves starter Julio Teheran took the loss in a disastrous start in Game 3 of the NLDS Sunday against Los Angeles.

Teheran allowed six runs on eight hits over 2 2/3 innings. Although he set a Braves rookie postseason record with five strikeouts and threw just 21 balls in 66 pitches, he was unable to avoid hard contact. Still, given the lack of depth in the Braves rotation and his excellent performance in the regular season, he would likely maintain his rotation spot should the Braves come back and advance to the NLCS.
